Getting Started with SAS Enterprise Miner for Machine Learning

This course introduces Enterprise Miner and demonstrates two common applications: segmentation, and predictive modeling. The course begins with an overview of Enterprise Miner and then moves on to segmentation and predictive modelling using a case study approach that is based on real-world data. Learners will be able to use Enterprise Miner to perform machine learning and data mining tasks after completing this course. Participants should have a solid quantitative background and, ideally, a basic understanding of predictive models including regression.
