Conference FAQ

How does the NESUG Annual Conference compare to the SAS Global Forum?

The NESUG conference is both different from and similar to the SAS Global Forum. SAS Global Forum usually has 10-15 concurrent presentation sessions lasting 20 or 50 minutes. The NESUG conference features 4-6 concurrent presentation sessions. The quality of NESUG and SUGI presentations is on the same level. Because attendance at NESUG is much smaller than that of SAS Global Forum, however, the conference has a much more personal feel. It's much easier to meet people and to talk with presenters after their sessions.
