SAS Learning Report
November 2019
Dear Reader,
Most customers we chat with tell us they’re having trouble finding and retaining analytics talent. The SAS global education teams are designed to help SAS customers develop and recruit the talent they need.
We recently worked with a major global bank that had 40% staff turnover on its credit risk modeling team. We helped them build a program at a nearby university, develop an internal mentoring program with clear career paths, and launch an internal data science academy. They reduced turnover to 15% and now have preferential access to new grads.
Let us help if your company is asking, “How do we identify and onboard the analytics talent we need? How do we get our existing team up to speed when dealing with different skill levels, diverse personalities and maybe even an outdated infrastructure?”
We’ll work with you to identify skills gaps and:
· Build talent pipelines with our worldwide network of top universities, and onboard new hires.
· Build career ladders for existing employees with private training and mentoring sessions.
· Create a customized digital learning portal for your team.
· Monitor employee progress with easy-to-use reporting.
Let us partner with you to develop and execute your analytics talent plan and pave the way to your machine learning transformation.
