SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 (Crash Course)

This is a one day class.

Target Student:

This one day instructor-led course covers the basics of SQL Server Reporting Services. Lessons cover report setup, formatting and execution methods. Installation and administrative topics are NOT covered in this course. We will get you started building reports, primarily using Report Builder, since we think Report Builder is the easiest reporting tool to use with SSRS.

This is a good course for an non-IT person who needs to build reports but doesn't need to know all the ins and outs of installing or administering Reporting Services.
