Proud to be a Microsoft Certified Master: Microsoft SQL Server 2008

  • Article

Earlier this year (or last fiscal year :-), I participated in a grueling three-week training and passed four exams (one of them a lab exam) to become one of just a dozen Microsoft Certified Masters on SQL Server 2008 worldwide.

This was certainly the most demanding IT certification I ever attempted and a great learning experience. Even more important, I met a few remarkable people in the process, both instructors and fellow padawans.
