New Certifications and more in June

It's been a really great month!

During Tech Ed I attended great educational sessions, met some amazing people, and renewed acquaintences with others. I also passed the 70-431 exam, satisfying the requirements for both Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist: SQL Server 2005 and Microsoft Certified IT Professional: Database Administrator at one time, since I'd passed the beta exams for 70-443 and 70-444 back in December.

During the week after Tech Ed I passed the 70-441 exam as well, so I'm now one test away from the ITPro:Database Developer certification as well. (I'll be taking that test very soon now.)

Probably the most exciting news of all to me was that my abstract was accepted and I'll be speaking at the 2006 PASS Community Summit in November:

DBA-201: Using SMO to create custom SQL Server Management solutions
11/15/2006
1:30 PM - 2:45 PM

I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend!
