We are pleased to announce a strategic content partnership with SQLskills, the leader in hardcore SQL Server classroom training. Moving forward, SQLskills will also publish their world-renowned SQL Server courses through the Pluralsight online training library!
Pluralsight subscribers will receive access to all future SQLskills online courses at no additional cost, illustrating the growing value of a Pluralsight subscription. Customers who attend SQLskills classroom events will also receive access to the SQLskills online courses at no additional cost, thereby offering students a compelling hybrid learning solution. Hence, this partnership delivers more value to both Pluralsight and SQLskills customers.
SQLskills is powered by Paul Randal and Kimberly Tripp, two of the world’s most respected SQL Server experts. The company provides the highest quality and most in-depth SQL Server classroom training in the market. SQLskills is currently the only company where all employees who conduct in-person training are instructors for Microsoft Certified Master (MCM) certifications. These instructors will now create the same or similar courses for the Pluralsight library, thereby making them available to developers, data-architects and database administrators around the globe.
SQLskills recently published four courses in the Pluralsight library and they already have six more planned for release before the end of September. We are thrilled with this new partnership and want you to give you a small taste of what you can expect from it in the future. So today, we are making a few of their courses available for FREE:
- SQL Server: Performance Troubleshooting Using Wait Statistics by Paul Randal

This is great news. The whole SQL World needs to know about this excellent news. There are many SQL Enthusiasts in the world who wants to learn from SQLskills Team but they cannot make it (either due to geographic location or cost), now they all have this wonderful opportunity.
There is no excuse for anybody to not learn from Paul, Kim, Joe, Jonathan, Glenn and Erin.
I’m loving this! We all know who the SQLskills people are. This partnership affirms the quality content that Pluralsight has been delivering to consumer. This is the answer to high-cost, quality training that most of us want to take but can’t afford for many reasons.
I know the SQLskills content on Pluralsight are in no way as deep as the Immersion Events that SQLskills is known for; but I’m sure all the content from them will have the same mark of quality.
I am looking to learning more from the SQLskills gang!
Thanks, Paul & Kimberly for this opportunity! Thanks for opening up this channel for us, the masses!
Actually the Pluralsught courses will be slightly deeper and/or more extensive than the equivalent content areas in the Immersion Events because there’s no time constraints when recording a course. For instance, I spend about 3 hours (training time, not elapsed time) in week 1 discussing transaction logs, but the transaction log course I’m recording in September will be 5-6 hours long.
Thanks!
That’s uber awesome! Thanks for offering the “SQLskills training” to all!

Good show, looking forward to more SQL related training videos!
Es fantastico, ahora podre aprender lo que siempre quise a un costo razonable.
This is awesome news! I was hoping for some more SQL training eventually, and what a great collection we are getting!
So, practicaly, this news mean that SQL Server cources would appear on Pluralsight more often?
Yes, absolutely.
Great news, it will be a great addition and collection.
