Prerequisites & logistics
The fine print, in regular-size type.
- Labs (optional)
- Your own SQL Server lab with the large Stack Overflow database, or rent a lab VM. Drew’s classes list their own setup. Labs are optional everywhere.
- Registration
- Sold only while registration is open, through Nov 30. Outside that window the button becomes a notify-me form.
- Alumni directory
- Live attendees are listed at brentozar.com/classes/alumni/ (name and class, opt-in).
- Access
- Recordings through Dec 31, 2026, on training.brentozar.com. One payment, no auto-renew.
- Refunds
- None. Watch the free previews and read the curriculum above first; that’s what it’s there for.
- Purchase orders
- Accepted for 10 or more seats; email help@brentozar.com for a quote. Everything else goes through the website by credit card.
