Course Description

Reviews:

"Instructor is easy to follow. He gives very clear examples. Course moves quickly enough to be engaging without skipping over material." -- Sarah Hale

"This course works for me because it progresses with a level of detail that will be useful as I think through each step necessary to execute my own integration packages. There are several courses to choose from and I'm glad I chose this one." -- David McNickle

"Very good introductory course. Didn't really know what SSIS was until recently. Working through the course opened my eyes to past projects that would have benefited from an SSIS ETL package or two." -- Stephen Benton

Welcome to this course about SQL Server Integration Services.

In this course you'll be downloading and installing the latest 2022 SQL Server Developer – a full version for free, so that you can use it on your machine. And previous versions of SQL Server Developer have previously retailed for around $100, and now it’s free.   

Please note: This course is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Microsoft.

So what is SSIS? It’s a way to automate in the importing and exporting and data – or ETL: extract, transform and load. It’s a very visual part of SSIS, using tasks, components and flowcharts, so it’s easy to learn the basics of it.  

We’ll start by extracting some data, and then loading it into another table. I’ll take nice as slow as we start to introduce transformations, such as aggregation, conditional split, merging and auditing. There’ll be plenty of practice activities too, so you can get to practice your new-found skills.

By the end of this course, you'll be confident in using the main Data Flow components and Control Flow tasks, and would be able to use it in your own work.

Clear run through SSIS core functionality. Not too long, just enough to get up to speed and start working. Sample exercises reinforce the learning perfectly. Very good, thank you.

By Damon Cadogan on 10/5/2025

Clear and concise, if not a bit dated (9 year old content as of the date of this review). However, updates have been interspersed via slidesheets. This course covers the essential basics of ETL in SSIS.

By Sam Kappagantula on 3/22/2022

Excellent introductory course to SSIS - mainly Control Flow and Data Flow. Would have been nice if there were few minutes on introduction to Event Handlers, Parameters and Packaging.

By Martin Costello on 1/2/2021

Yes, it was a very good introduction and the insturctor was knowledgeable and pleasant. (Note there are issues with the Source and Destination OLE DB managed connections

Good presentation

By Alan Purseglove on 10/23/2020

This was a Very Good Introduction and I found it very Helpful. I do have a very good understanding of ETL Processes just not within the SSIS as I have never seen this product before. In all it was very well explained.

By Manuel I Velazquez Plata on 10/19/2020

Very good course, it shows how ssis works with practical examples in almost every lesson. Before this course I had no idea about ssis but now I feel ready to use it in my job

By Bhavani Sundararajan on 10/17/2020
