I’m happy to announce that I’ll be teaming up with my Linchpin People colleague Bill Pearson for a day of BI and SSIS training next month.  On Wednesday, February 12th, we’ll each be delivering a full-day presentation in Baton Rouge, after which we’ll be joining the Baton Rouge SQL Server User Group for their monthly meeting.

I’ll be presenting Real World SSIS: A Survival Guide, which is aimed at beginning-to-intermediate SSIS developers.  In this day-long training session, I’ll be sharing and demonstrating many of the ETL lessons that I’ve learned in my 10+ years working in the SQL Server business intelligence ecosystem.

At the same time, Bill Pearson will be delivering Practical Self-Service BI with PowerPivot for Excel, which will provide a crash course for those who are new to PowerPivot.  Following these day-long presentations, Bill will also share more on PowerPivot at the Baton Rouge SQL Server User Group that evening.

Registration for both of these day-long courses is currently open, and early-bird pricing is available for a limited time.  If you’re around the Baton Rouge area and are interested in learning more about SSIS or PowerPivot, we’d love to have you join us next month!
