SAS Talent Connection
Denmark
Our Talent Connection Program facilitates easy connections between higher education students and companies using SAS.
At SAS, we are dedicated to fostering an analytics- and technology-enabled workforce that drives innovation and creates real-world impact. Through education initiatives and industry engagement programs, we work to close the analytics skills gap and support collaboration between academia and industry. Our SAS Talent Connection program builds partnerships with universities and customers to develop industry-ready talent by aligning educational programs with labor market needs.
In Denmark, this commitment shines through events like our recent collaboration with Novo Nordisk, where we welcomed over 130 university students and professors to explore the practical applications of SAS® tools in healthcare and gain career insights from industry leaders. Together, we’re inspiring the next generation of data science talent to shape the future of data and technology.

Anja Vrečer
Graduate of the University of Copenhagen
I had the opportunity to visit the SAS office in Copenhagen where I was introduced to SAS Programming, within no time I was signed-up and using SAS Skill Builder for Students, the self-paced video tutorials enabled me to successfully prepare for SAS certification in one month. After a Talent Connection event at SAS with Novo Nordisk I was hired in a student position at Novo Nordisk where I later also successfully made my thesis as part of my employment.
