How VNode delivers this
Who this is for, and how we run it
VNode ITeS delivers Migrate SQL Server workloads to Azure SQL Database as an MCT-led Microsoft program for Database Administrator. Typical duration is Applied skill assessment (Virtual, On-site, or Hybrid). Labs follow production-shaped scenarios rather than slide-only walkthroughs. Applied Skills delivery aims at a working artifact your team can take back, not a quiz score. Private cohorts can shift emphasis by role mix, workspace or repo constraints, and rollout timing.
