Dear readers,
 The SAS Global Forum event, which took place April 16-19 in Orlando, is a bit like Christmas for SAS Education. Okay, so maybe we don't get the toys or a visit from Santa, but we do get something even better: a visit from more than 3,500 SAS users. And, for a service organization like SAS Education, that's a big deal.
We certainly learned a lot from our users during the week. After a lot of hard work, anticipation and man hours, we've returned to our offices recharged, inspired and ... exhausted. But not too exhausted to bring you another issue of SAS Training Report.
In this issue you'll find:
News - As always, we have great deals and information on our training and programs for you.
Coder's Corner - Get the story behind SAS' base date for data values, programming tips, instructors' answers to student's questions and more.
Events - If you missed out on SAS Global Forum, we have other great conferences to help you sharpen your SAS skills.
Thanks for reading!
Larry LaRusso
