Last week’s Winter Storm Pax closed schools, businesses and government here in the eastern US. Perhaps we were inspired by warm thoughts of America’s capital city in the spring.  Perhaps spending so many days at home alone underscored the value of sharing information and insights with coworkers. Or, perhaps after Pax cancelled Valentine’s Day plans, conference planners decided enough already—this week we celebrate!

So from February 14-21, we are celebrating--Presidents Day, our conference in America’s historic capital, and the value of friends and coworkers! All you have to do to join the celebration is pay for one SAS Global Forum 2014 early-bird registration, and you’ll receive a discount code for 50 percent off a business or government early-bird registration to share.

Please don’t miss this opportunity to save on conference registration fees for yourself and a friend or coworker. Perhaps you know someone in another part of your organization who wants to learn more about SAS—someone from your IT department or another business unit. I love this post by The IT Whisperer Lisa Horwitz who blogged recently about sharing the SAS Global Forum 2014 experience and having twice the fun.

There are hundreds of opportunities for learning at this year’s conference. And new content is being added to the Conference Scheduler every week.  For example, now you can add SAS Super Demos and SAS Futures sessions to your list of interests.

Conference planners have done their best to provide the content that’s important to you and determine the best ways to deliver it. Please watch my most recent video to learn more—and register today for our BOGO half-price celebration!
