How to Register:

Choose your workshop and enroll

Every workshop enrollment opens in a new tab so you can add additional workshops if needed.
Be sure workshop selections do not overlap as there are simultaneous tracks.

Sign in with your SAS profile

Your SAS profile must use your academic email to process your registration and access course materials in SAS Skill Builder for Students or the SAS Educator Portal.
Priority is given to first-time registrants, so seats are not guaranteed.
Courses fill quickly, but new workshops are added regularly.

Save the date and join us in class

Upon checkout, look for an email that confirms processing of your registration request.
Next, you'll get an email notifying you that you're enrolled in a course, or waitlisted.
If you're waitlisted, a follow-up email will confirm when a seat is available, moving you from waitlisted to enrolled.
