Logistic Regression Project using SAS Stat4h 26mView Curriculum

Description

The program is structured to enable learners to build a solid, practical understanding of logistic regression analysis using SAS/STAT. It begins with a clear explanation of foundational concepts, gradually moving toward applied techniques that mirror real-world analytical scenarios.

Participants work with practical datasets, including industry-relevant examples, to understand how logistic regression is used to model probabilities and predict outcomes. The course places equal emphasis on theory and hands-on application, ensuring learners can confidently prepare data, build models, and interpret results.

By the end of the program, learners will be well-equipped to apply logistic regression techniques in research, business analytics, and data-driven decision-making environments.
