SQL Server Reporting Services training

We only discovered SSRS a few years ago, but we've been training and consulting on it enthusiastically ever since.  If you're trying to learn Reporting Services there will be something on this page for you:

You may also be interested in Report Builder, the (inferior?) sibling of Reporting Services.


 

Public SQL Server Reporting Services training courses

We currently run two courses in Reporting Services:

Course Summary
Reporting Services A two-day introduction to Reporting Services
Advanced SSRS course A two-day follow-up course showing advanced SSRS features

Both courses use Visual Studio 2010 as a development environment.  To see what you'll learn on the courses, see our SSRS training page.

SQL Server Reporting Services course exercises

We've published all of our SSRS and Report Builder exercises online (we mix and match betwen the two, as they're virtually identical), so you can judge for yourself whether our training is for you:

Category Exercises Notes
SSRS exercises 53 Online training exercises in Reporting Services
Report Builder exercises 23 Online training exercises in Report Builder

We usually use the Report Builder exercise set for our SSRS courses, as they're a bit more fun!

Versions of SQL Server Reporting Services

Not sure which version of Reporting Services you need to learn?  Here is a history:

We currently teach using SSRS 2008 R2, which is to all intents and purposes identical to SSRS 2012, but very different from SSRS 2005.

Tutorials, blogs and videos on Reporting Services

As well as providing classroom-based training in Reporting Services, we've also blogged and YouTubed (is there such a word?):

Online training Notes
SSRS training videos A series of videos showing you how to accomplish different tasks in SSRS
Reporting Services blogs Blogs on all sorts of Reporting Services topics!

However, there's still no substitute for attending a real-life Wise Owl training course!

SQL Server Reporting Services consultancy

To be honest, we're itching to do more consultancy on Reporting Services!  Having written some reports for a couple of clients, we realise just how quick we now are at using thsi superb software.  To be proficient with SSRS, it's not enough just to know how to create reports; you need to be an SQL guru also, to get the right information in the first place, in the most efficient way.  If you're staring at some reports which need writing, why not ask us to help?
