Agenda from June 2011 DB2 for i Directions
DB2 for i Directions offers a flexible approach to your DB2 education with two days of classroom learning bookended by optional full-day
workshops with hands-on lab exercises. Whether you are relatively new to the IBM i or a seasoned pro, you'll find the right level of
education at Directions.
At our last Directions event, most people started with a day-long workshop on SQL basics. Next we moved into the heart of the conference -
two days of rigorous education, each featuring two tracks of more advanced DB2 and SQL tips, techniques and strategies. We finished the event
with another full day devoted to hands-on training on IBM i's built-in SQL Performance Tools.
To see how it all fits together, see the "Week-at-a-Glance" schedule below. For more information on specific classes, view the list of
workshops and sessions or the Session Road Map.
