Tenerife Winter Sessions Conference: A Growing Community of Tech Enthusiasts
March 18, 2025Build, Innovate, and #Hacktogether!
March 18, 2025One of the most popular courses that we used to run in person was a SQL Server Administration course. Yesterday, I recently finished converting the course to an online format, and it was a big job.
I’ve had many people asking if we had this type of course. Administration is such an important skill.
Not just a single version course
We were also determined to stay with our tradition of making multi-version courses. We won’t just teach you about SQL Server 2022. Even though we’ve updated content to that version, we’ve included content for all relevant previous versions, and we show the progression across the versions.
We know that most admins and developers need to know their way around several versions.
Who is it for?
- Have you worked with SQL Server? Are you an accidental DBA?
- Do you need to manage one or more servers but feel underprepared?
- Are you familiar with SQL Server security?
- Do you understand file structures, file groups, and compression?
- Can you automate regular tasks securely?
- Are you ready to move beyond the basics and learn from an expert?
If any of these relate to you, this course is tailor-made for you! Join us for detailed instruction, engaging practical exercises, and quizzes designed to reinforce your learning.
The new course is here:
