SAS Certification
The department encourages undergraduate majors/honours and graduate students to develop computing skills that can make them more valuable in the workplace. SAS offers a certification program where students can receive a certification credential by passing an exam. While we are not affiliated with SAS in any way, we recognize the potential value that such a credential may have to students who are seeking jobs. We therefore offer to reimburse students in any of the department's major, honours, or graduate programs for the discounted cost of one passed SAS certification exam (currently $90).
Details on the entire SAS certification program can be found . We do not run this program. Details on scheduling an exam can be found through the same website. Be sure to request an academic 50% discount (the amount that we will reimburse).
To arrange for reimbursement, please email the department's financial clerk (stat_usec_fincl at sfu.ca). Make sure that you include in your email your receipt and the message from SAS that you have passed the exam.
