Course Description

Our Microsoft SQL Server DBA and SQL Programming course (both on-prem and Azure Cloud) is designed to provide a complete learning pathway for anyone seeking to master SQL Server in today’s hybrid data landscape. Whether you are an aspiring database professional starting fresh or an experienced IT specialist looking to upgrade your skills, this course offers the knowledge and hands-on expertise you need. No prior experience is required, making it accessible to beginners, while the depth of topics ensures value for seasoned professionals.

The program begins with a solid foundation in database concepts and SQL programming using Transact-SQL (T-SQL). From there, you will gain practical knowledge in installing and configuring SQL Server, managing day-to-day database administration tasks, and implementing high availability and disaster recovery strategies to ensure business continuity. The course also emphasizes performance monitoring and tuning, equipping you with the skills to maintain stable, secure, and efficient database systems.

As cloud adoption continues to reshape IT, we include a dedicated module on Azure SQL, where you will learn administration techniques unique to Microsoft’s cloud platform. You will also gain hands-on experience with database migration strategies, enabling you to confidently move workloads from on-premises SQL Servers to Azure SQL while maintaining performance and data integrity.

To enhance the quality of learning, every participant receives official Microsoft courseware, including Querying Data with Transact-SQL and Administering Microsoft SQL Server Databases. These materials align with Microsoft’s certification tracks and can serve as valuable references even after the training is completed.

With over a decade of experience training thousands of students across the USA, Canada, and beyond, we are proud to offer high-quality, affordable programs in SQL Server, Azure, AWS, AI, and related technologies. Based in Philadelphia, USA, our training combines structured teaching, real-world case studies, and practical labs to prepare you for real-life database management scenarios in both corporate and cloud environments.
