We want to help you improve performance, get insights from your data, step up security, and take advantage of new features across the platform. We want you to master reporting, BI, data integration, and developer tools and techniques.

We teach and demonstrate how to integrate cloud-based data services, run SQL Server technology in the cloud, use Power BI and Analysis Services, and plan for SQL Server recovery and availability.
