SQL MasterClass Programme 2011

Following on from the hugely successful "SQL Acadamy" in 2009, we have joined forces with Microsoft Ireland to provide a set of five MasterClasses for SQL and BI professionals in Ireland. running from November 2010 to August 2011.

Each class is half day deep dive into a highly relevant topic on SQL Server or Business Intelligence. The goal is to help SQL professionals in Ireland progress to expert level and beyond with real world practical seminars.

All classes are individually planned seminars at levels 300 to 400+. Classes will be either led by our local SQL Microsoft Certified Master / Architect and MVP (Bob Duffy), or by well known MVP speakers such as Chris Webb from the United Kingdom.

This is a community project (non profit). The first session will be free and for subsequent sessions there will be nominal charge of 100 euro for individually booked seminars or only 250 euro to attend the entire programme of classes.
