Recently Adam Machanic (b/t) was telling me about an interesting effect of the top operator. When I asked for an example he pointed me to a few of his sessions from various Pass Summits. They are amazing and I recommend watching them, but they also lead me to something called PassTV on youtube. I’ve heard of PassTV before but never really taken advantage of it. It is of course sponsered by Pass (the organization formerly known as the Professional Association for SQL Server), a group devoted to spreading the joy that is SQL Server. They provide a ton of free training.

• Both Local and Virtual chapters
  A great way to get some free training and network with others who share your passion for data and SQL Server.
• SQL Saturdays
  A free day of training coming to a city near you.
• SQL Summit
  “The world’s largest gathering of SQL Server and BI professionals.”
• 24 Hours of Pass
  A solid 24 hours of free training.

 
Well a number of these great sessions are saved for posterity on youtube under PassTV. If you follow the link and look under the playlists you will find, among others, the best of Pass Summit 2014, 24 Hours of Pass 2014 and Pass BAC 2015. For future reference I’ve added the link for PassTV to my Study and Reference Materials page.

Enjoy and happy studying!
