Registration Fees and Packages

MEMO UPDATE: FROM THE SAS GLOBAL USERS GROUP EXECUTIVE BOARD

The SAS Global Users Group Executive Board is committed to providing a conference for each user that provides the most value for each dollar paid. Unfortunately, this year we were forced to raise rates again. It is important for you to know we spent a lot of time analyzing every dollar in the budget to ensure responsible use of your registration dollars before making the decision to increase registration fees. In order to continue to provide the positive conference experience that SAS Global Forum attendees have come to expect, the inevitable conclusion was that rates must be raised to keep pace with the costs of putting on a quality conference. Fortunately, this year we were able to keep the increases to a minimum. We also reshaped the registration to offer three packages to offer either basic registration or two options that bundle registration, meals, and seminars at a discount. We hope that these packages assist you with attendance approval and budgeting.

Registration fees include admission to all conference events unless otherwise noted.
