Check out the Microsoft site for a listing of webcasts, bootcamps, and other events for SQL Server for Q4 of 2011. I’m actually surprised that there’s not much going in right now, very surprised, especially with the coming of SQL Server ‘Denali’; I thought that Microsoft would be pounding the pavement to get licenses sold for the newest release, and they may, but certainly couldn’t tell from the list below.
I do see a ‘roadshow’ in Dallas coming up on 10/24, and these are always fun to attend, if nothing else but to see old friends and stock up on pens and notepads (and get out of the office)!
Below is a search on the site for SQL Server. Go visit and see what’s interesting to you.
Thanks,
Lee
