• I definitely think there is enough material on SQL Agent to fill an hour. The only way to be sure is to write the presentation and then practice it.

    1. Identify scenarios where SQL Agent should be used

    2. Schedule jobs to run at selected times.

    3. Define an operator to be alerted when a job fails.
