I did the MS course M2779 thinking that it was about implementing SQL 2005 databases (as that was the course title - silly me) - it turned out to be all about changes to TSQL which wasn't of much use to me. Costs about £1K.

I'll invoice your client £500 for training and send you this and we'll split the profits 50/50
What do you say?

Recommend MSSQL 2005 Training
Can anyone recommend a good training course for MSSQL 2005. I'm looking for a complete introduction from the perspective of someone who who knows the theory of RDBMS but knows nothing about MSSQL 2005.
This is the base of many products I use so I want to get under the hood a bit. I don't want a "click these buttons" course, I want something in depth that will spend a fair amount of time doing things like writing complex SQL statements. At the same time I'm not the quickest on the uptake and it might take me a long time to understand how to write complex SQL statements.
Anywhere in the UK is fine. I've looked at learningtree so far.
This course isn't being funded by me so, while obviously I want to get value, quality is more of a concern than price.Tags: None
