Three things to note for SAS admins: April 2019

[ShelleySessoms]

We here at SAS view April as the month of learning, especially since that’s when we typically have SAS Global Forum. I realize most of you can’t or don’t attend the conference, but I don’t want you to miss out on all the learning opportunities. There are plenty within the community here, but there’s lots more too. That’s why I’m focusing on three ways you can learn as a SAS Administrator…for free, and without ever leaving the comfort of your home or office:

• SAS Administrator Ask the Expert series. View free webinars on topics such as SAS Environment Manager, SAS Management Console, SAS Grid Manager, and more.
• Free e-Learning courses, such as SAS Viya Administration, SAS Platform Administration, and more.
• Free how-to videos on administration and architecture.

Do you have suggestions for courses or learning opportunities for SAS Administrators? Post a comment and share with your fellow community members.

Thank you so much @ShelleySessoms , for your refreshing wrap ups every month.

I would add to the list:

• This year's SAS Global Forum's Virtual videos for virtual attendance, for the General Sessions and for the User Sessions, already being posted.
• Of course, this year's SAS Global Forum's Proceedings, where most of the Papers and some of the slides are being posted.
• The GitHub community for this year's SAS Global Forum presentations, where code and other goodies can be found.
• Anja Fisher's book: SAS® Administration from the Ground Up: Running the SAS®9 Platform in a Metadata Server Environment ... probably the first or one of the first SAS books made by a #SASAdmin and for #SASAdmins!

Terrific list, @JuanS_OCS! Thank you for such a thorough look at all the things for the #SASAdmin at SASGF.

I have to, since I cannot attend this year. I have not read yet even 5% of the proceedings yet. It's the heaven of SAS knowledge (except perhaps some "paid holidays" in Cary!). 😉
