Why select Sierra for on-site customized SAS training?

  • Customized training is the most effective way to equip teams at an organization to apply SAS tools to their projects and programs. Attendees typically absorb key concepts faster, and better, when the curriculum is directly relevant to how they are to apply SAS in their work.
  • Time allotted to training is maximized when the course materials focus on those parts of SAS that attendees are expected to use in their jobs, while excluding discussion of SAS’ other capabilities. Our customized training materials ensure a high-value learning experience with an immediate “pay back” in measurable improvements in employee productivity and ability to apply what they learned in the class to their own projects and programs.
  • Sierra has the demonstrated expertise to develop and deliver a wide range of SAS-related training curriculum, from introductory sessions for those new to SAS as well as classes on the latest in SAS capabilities appropriate for experienced users. We can provide customized training on both “classic” SAS programming tools and on how to use Enterprise Guide™ capabilities, and adjust the focus of the class to the professional orientation and experience level of the attendees.
  • Sierra’s team of highly-qualified instructors each have at least 20 years of hands-on experience applying SAS’ capabilities in a wide variety of industry and government applications. They have the demonstrated capability to enthusiastically convey their in-depth knowledge of the SAS System to diverse groups of learners in many different training environments. All of our instructors have earned at least one qualification from the SAS Certified Professional™ program.
  • Selecting Sierra for your customized on-site training engagement means your teams learn from SAS experts via high-quality materials serving as a ready reference when it comes time to apply the course curriculum to specific own projects and programs.
  • When possible, we customize the course materials with example data you provide. We are happy to execute non-disclosure agreements enabling us to work with your data sources, and to assist in the development of “de-personalized” example data files that retain the “look and feel” of your organization’s data while preserving confidentiality requirements.
