SQLTeach special event: Smart Database Design with Paul Nielsen

SQLTeach special event: Smart Database Design with Paul Nielsen Again this summer SQLTeach is hosting a special event in Vancouver. This time Paul Nielsen is giving a 2-day workshop (July 28-29) on Smart Database Design - advanced SQL Server development best practices. Paul is the author of the SQL Server 2005 Bible (Wiley); he is currently working on the SQL Server 2008 Bible, and he's built his career turning around failed database projects.

Based on sound data architecture, this seminar walks through every key design decision and shows you how to evaluate the pros and cons of the various options. Don't waste your time on "trial and error" methods or the long, boring courses. In just two days gain the skills, best-practices, and know-how to confidently design and develop SQL Server database. Wait, that's not all, you will walk away from these 2 days with Paul's SQL Server 2005 Bible, and his Smart Database Design materials. SQLTeach is really training you can't get any other way.
