A MCTS Certificationin Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (MCTS: SQL Server 2005) teaches technicians how to implement and maintain databases using specific instructions and specifications. Those who possess a MCTS Certification also have thorough knowledge of the product, understand how to use the tools and Transact-SQL language, and know how to explore the user interface. Additionally, MCTS Certification holders will typically pursue careers as database administrators, database developers, or business intelligence developers. They may also be developers and systems administrators who do not work with SQL Server daily but who want to show their breadth of technology experience.
