From sasCommunity

Jump to: navigation, search

During the Opening Session at SAS Global Forum 2007, Conference Chair Robert Fecht introduced SASCommunity.org, a new external, interactive Web site for SAS users.

This site is “of the users, by the users and for the users.” It is owned and managed by the SAS Global Users Group Executive Board, who developed the vision, determined the kind of functionality needed, and created an organizational structure.

The features available on SASCommunity.org include:

  • A Wiki where users can share their knowledge about the use of SAS software.
  • A consultant’s (provider) registry implemented as Wiki pages.
  • A job registry.
  • Archived video presentations.
  • A list of consultants and others providing services to the SAS community.

In addition, registered users will be able to create their own home page and blog. Presenters at SAS Global Forum (and other user conferences) will be able to upload supplemental materials for their presentations.

This web site is an exciting development for the SAS user community and enhances its ability to share and grow knowledge of SAS software and its use. All SAS users are welcome to participate in sasCommunity.org.
