Mastering the Fundamentals of SSIS (Udemy.com)

Some exercises needed more rehearsal, instructor correcting his own mistakes is distracting for students. Also, he whizzed by some exercise components that several backups and replays were required to keep up with the exercise. Sample Excel file was not supplied. In Quiz 3, question 6, where so you go to change protection, the correct answer is Security under the project, not the package.

I've been doing some very limited packages with SSIS for about 1 yr now. This training has opened up many ideas how I could take them to the next level. I tried this training because I wanted to start a good base knowledge in SSIS using an American English speaker.

Very Good, and he has a great voice to learn from, but I would rather be a beginner taking this course than a Mid level. I think he gives enough info for a beginner but there isn't much for a person who has already gone through each utility.

Pro: Overall the course is good. In depth fundamental class. Great for beginners with some SQL background. The instructor is enthusiastic and has a great delivery. Con: Early on the instructor states that he is going to be using AdventureWorks2012; however, he ends up using AdventureWorks2014 for most the lesson plan. There is an excel file and a T-SQL statement missing from the resource data that accompanies this class.

The reason I left only 3 stars is because one important section is missing. That section or topic is how to handle errors. Other than that this course is quite good and gives reasonable information to get you going if you don't know anything about SSIS. Thank you.

Very good information, I did have to search for the answers to some problems that I had, but that is another part of the process to learn.

Very Good value for the money. . Annoying that loading adventureworks2012 is emphasized, and halfway through lesson 1, it changes to adventureworks2014, then in lesson 3. changes back to adventureworks2012. . Realize only an SSIS intro course, but more on package deployment would have been good. . Hadoop is in the task menu, and was never mentioned, when all the other tasks were.

You are the best.learned a lot from you , you have done great job and you explain so nicely , keep up your great work! to student: if you want to learn basic , take this course. you will learn the basic pretty well.

Very helpful course, gave me good overview on how to use SSIS with some practical examples. Lectures were clear and concise and gave me good understanding of the subjects covered.

I wasn't able to get the adventure db, therefore, I spent alot of time creating my own data to complete with each section. Also, the Bulk.txt file wasn't provided. I think that having all the data required for the course is important. Maybe spend some time sharing with student where to get it and how to install/configure.
