My Black Friday Sale on Training Classes is Open Now!
Every year, I run a Black Friday sale to reward people who read the blog our all year long but can’t get their boss to spring for my regular full price training classes.
This is your chance to get a one-year access to my fundamentals and mastering training classes, widely regarded as some of the best in the industry. I work hard to bring you new and interesting and fun modules that teach you how to make SQL server and Azure SQL DB run faster and more reliably.
If you’re lucky, you can take these discount prices to your boss and get the company to pay for your training. If you’re not lucky enough to have a job like that, now’s your chance to invest in yourself at my lowest prices all year long to hopefully get you the kind of job where the company will invest in you too. Here’s the sales lineup for this year:
| Class | Recorded: Fundamentals 10 recordings | Recorded: Mastering 3 recordings | Recorded: Fundamentals + Mastering 13 recordings | Live Class Season Pass Every live class plus all 13 recordings |

The Fine Print
Can we pay via check or purchase order? Yes, but only for 10 or more seats for the same package, and the full payment (not just a purchase order or IOU) must be received before the sale ends. Email us now at Help@BrentOzar.com with the package you want to buy and the number of seats, and we’ll send you a quote to include with your check. Make your check payable to Brent Ozar Unlimited and mail it to 5725 S Valley View Blvd, Ste 5, PMB 45779, Las Vegas, NV 89118-3122. Your payment must be received before we activate your training, and must be received before the sale ends. Payments received after the sale ends will not be honored. We do not accept POs as payment unless they are also accompanied by a check in the same envelope. For a W9 form: http://downloads.brentozar.com/w9.pdf
Can we get discounts for group buys? Not during the Black Friday sale. These prices are as low as we go.
Can we send you a form to fill out? No, to keep costs low during the Black Friday sales, we don’t do any manual paperwork or sign up for your vendor system. To get these awesome prices, you’ll need to check out through our web site and use the automatically generated PDF invoice/receipt that gets sent to you via email about 15-30 minutes after your purchase finishes. If you absolutely need us to fill out paperwork, we’d be happy to do it at our regular (non-sale) prices – email us at Help@BrentOzar.com for details
