Sahil Malik is holding a 1 day training session on ADO.NET 2. Its titled “The ADO.NET 2 Boot Camp”  and you can register here. Sahil is an industry expert who has some great insight on ADO.NET and more generally on data access. I love discussing data access with him as he clearly knows his stuff. For $349, that’s not a bad cost for 1 day with Sahil.
