Public course fees and length vary depending on the subject matter and type of course. View the course outline and schedule for details. Registration fees
cover all course materials and computer time for lecture/workshop courses. Early registration is recommended because classes fill quickly. An early bird
discount for 10% off standard course fees is available for most courses when you register and pay for the course at least four weeks in advance of the
course start date. A group discount for 10% off standard course fees is also available for most courses for individuals from the same organization who
register and pre-pay for the same public course together.

education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction, and qualified instruction." CEUs give you units of measurement for professional
development that can be accumulated and documented. SAS awards 0.6 CEU units for each day of classroom training or 0.3 CEU units for each Live Web session;
therefore, for each three-day SAS training course or 6-session Live Web course, you earn 1.8 CEUs.
