SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2 is THE way to publish reports to your corporate intranet. Not only can you include tables of data, matrices (you may know these as pivot tables), charts, lists and subreports, but SSRS 2008 R2 also includes whizzy new report items like indicators, gauges and sparklines. On this three-day course you will use SQL Server 2008 R2 Business Intelligence Development Studio to create reports, and learn how to deploy and export them in various formats. The course will also briefly show how to use Report Builder 3.0 (although superficially different, it is actually almost identical to Reporting Services). Suitable for: This SSRS 2008 R2 course is aimed primarily at businesses and public sector organisations
