It’s hard to believe it is almost February. The office is buzzing with all of the great things coming up in 2014 especially SAS Global Forum in just two months. But before we move too fast, I was thinking about 2013 and what really worked. The SAS Talks technical webinar series popped into my head. With over a dozen live webinars produced in 2013,  SAS users, authors and experts covered a plethora of topics—all of which are archived and ready for viewing when you need them.

The SAS Talks webinar series will continue to expand in 2014, but first let’s review the top 5 SAS Talks webinars from 2013.
