The answer to your question on the best way to learn SAS administration depends very much on your educational background and your experience.

If you read the blog posts referenced in the post "SAS administrator roles and responsibilities: a recap", you’ll see that the answer depends on your knowledge and experience as a general systems administrator as well as your knowledge of SAS software. Experienced SAS administrators will tell you they’ve acquired their skills and knowledge through a combination of formal training (paid instruction), informal training (online or other resources) and hands-on experience.
