SAGE Programs
SAGE programs are designed to offer professional and technical information, tools, services, and gathering places for the system administration community. Some of our most important and popular existing programs serve the community in multiple ways, as you will see by the list below:
Professional Development
- The System Administrators' Code of Ethics is available for download in both Poster and Diploma formats.
We encourage all system administrators to post the Code of Ethics in their workplace.
- Student programs offer financial aid and other support for professional development. They include grants to help fund conference attendance, low membership fees, and a university outreach program with substantial benefits.
- The Speakers Bureau, connecting speakers with sysadmin groups worldwide. Anyone may register as a Speaker or view the listed talks.
- The annual SAGE Salary Survey results provide vital statistics for system administrators and their managers.
- The high-volume Jobs Offered and Jobs Wanted listings. Anyone may post a job offer or view the Jobs Wanted listings; only SAGE members may view the jobs offered or post a Jobs Wanted listing.
