Peter coaxed me into doing a three-day course on ADO.NET for his local SQL Server User Group in Vienna, Austria. This summer academy offers five courses in total, ranging from T-SQL programming to MDX, from ADO.NET 1.1 to a hands-on lab for SQL Server 2005.

Let's see how much I can cram into my course - I plan on covering the .NET Data Access Architecture Guide, Designing Data Tier Components and Passing Data Through Tiers, DAAB 3.1, SQL Server Centric .NET Code Generator (a really cool tool by Pascal Belaud) and maybe even get around to introducing the Provider Model Design Pattern and Specification (and part II).
