PURCHASE ORDERS - US & CANADIAN GOVERNMENT ONLY:

The SANS Institute requires payment in advance for all courses. If you are an employee of the United States federal government or the Government of Canada, you are permitted to submit a valid purchase order or federal training authorization form in advance as your prepayment.

You must register before submitting your purchase order to ensure accurate processing. Completed forms may be faxed to 301-951-0140 - Attention: Tuition Dept. - Fed PO, or they may be mailed to:

SANS Tuition Dept.
Federal Purchase Orders - SANS Oslo 2007 at TELENOR
8120 Woodmont Avenue,
Suite 205
Bethesda, Maryland 20814

IMPORTANT: A completed purchase order must include the full SANS event invoice number (letters & numbers). The amount on the purchase order MUST match the tuition fee shown on the invoice you received when you registered at the SANS Web site. Please also ensure that accurate billing instructions are noted on the purchase order. If your purchase order is incomplete or inaccurate, it will cause delays in processing, which could lead to delays in training.

PURCHASE ORDERS — ALL OTHER STUDENTS:

SANS does not accept state, provincial, corporate, or university purchase orders as prepayment for training. Your tuition fee must be paid in advance by check, bank transfer, or credit card.

We realize that your organization may still need to use a purchase order internally as part of the payment process. To obtain an invoice for your accounts payable department, please take the following steps:

1. Register for your training online. At the end of the registration process, you will be prompted to print your own invoice. Please do this.
2. Take the unpaid invoice to your accounts payable department so that they can match the purchase order with this invoice and generate payment to SANS by check, credit card, or bank transfer.

Please remember that SANS must receive your tuition payment prior to the start of your course. We look forward to having you join the SANS community!

GSA (US Federal Government Employees only):

The SANS GSA contract number is GS-35F-0221N. GSA pricing is available for federal government employees for live SANS training events. SANS Mentor, SANS vLive!, Self Study, and On Demand programs are not eligible for the discount. A complete list of the courses that are on the GSA schedule can be found at http://www.gsaadvantage.gov.

To obtain the GSA discount, please submit your registration through the SANS Web site. Then send your request for GSA pricing by email to gsa@sans.org, and be sure to include your invoice number. Your tuition fee will be adjusted for the GSA discount, and a revised invoice will be emailed to you showing the new amount due.

Federal government contractors may also receive GSA pricing. Contractors are required to submit a GSA authorization letter to SANS in order to receive the GSA discount. The letter must be issued by the contracting federal agency on their letterhead and state that the contractor has permission to purchase under the GSA contract. Please fax your GSA Authorization letter along with a copy of your SANS invoice to Cara Mueller at 814-253-3034. You will receive a response by email once your request has been reviewed.

Please note that while federal government contractors may receive GSA pricing, this does not mean that SANS accepts purchase orders from contractors. SANS policy on purchase orders still applies, and contractors will still be required to provide payment in advance for all courses.

Information on acceptable payment types can be found at (Payment Types). SANS GSA schedule items are available through GSA Advantage. Please see http://www.gsaadvantage.gov for further details.

If you have any questions regarding the SANS GSA contract, please address them to gsa@sans.org.
