We at The Cloverleaf School are fortunate enough to have the fabulous Julie Smith on our board as one of our Co-Founders. When she’s not helping to get groundbreaking new special needs schools off the ground, Julie is part of the popular IT blogging duo, the Datachix as well as a Consultant at Innovative Architects and an SQL Server MVP.
She and her Datachix compatriot, Audrey Hammond, have been generous enough to donate a day of training to benefit The Cloverleaf School. So, without further ado…..
Learn DataWarehousing with the DataChix!
SQL Server MVPs and popular blogging team Audrey Hammonds and Julie Smith of DataChix.com offer this one day of training to benefit The Cloverleaf School of Atlanta in cooperation with The American Legion Post 251, Duluth, GA. Audrey will take you on a guided tour of converting a transactional model into Dimension and Fact tables. After the model has been created, Julie will guide you through loading those tables using SQL Server Integration Services.
To top it all off, it’s happening on March 14th folks.
That’s right. 3/14 Pi Day. Could there be a better way to celebrate the irrational number which represents the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter than by using SSIS? NOPE! But maybe we’ll get some delicious Pie to celebrate as well!
Audrey and Julie bring over 25 years of warehousing experience to this fantastic day of training, but don’t say that to their faces!
Datachix, Audrey Hammonds
