I am currently on vacation after working non-stop for almost an year and I think I really needed a few days to relax. However, I found out again that “no-work is no-fun” and thought of building content an XML Training course that I always wanted.

It was really fun working on this and I did the first training with this course content at 4Axes InfoTech Services in Bangalore on 29th Dec 2009. It was a full day course that covered the XML support in SQL Server in detail.

You can find the details of the course content at http://beyondrelational.com/content/xmltraining.aspx

I have also setup an XML Resource Center where a lot of XML related information is posted. I have also setup an XML Forum and XML Group for people interested to participate in XML related discussions.
