    Seeking SAS Trainer: ETS/Time Series Forecasting

    I know a Midwestern company that is seeking a one-day mentoring/training session on Time Series Forecasting. They have recently licensed SAS/ETS software and are interested in determining which routines available in that software module can assist with producing sales forecasts for the Holiday season. The one-day training would probably consist of a half-day classroom overview of Time Series Forecasting concepts, followed by a half- day group “mentoring” session where the trainer would provide examples of using Proc Forecast with the company's data.

    If you or anyone you know is qualified to provide such training, and interested in delivering this course, please contact me off-list via e- mail, and I can refer you to the appropriate contacts.
