So, you're employer isn't likely to spring for a trip to Belgium then. Oh well. There's still Connections and PASS Summit.
Well we do have an open door policy and I can ask my manager anything I want, but sometimes I don't like the way he looks at me when I ask him these kind of questions like "I am thinking of going to Belgium and I need to know if the company will pay for it".:-)
I think I will try Brent Ozar. He offers courses which mainly focus on Performance.
He has some good stuff and is based right there in Chicago anyway. That helps.
SQLSkills does a lot of performance tuning training in Chicago too.
You couldn't really go wrong with some of these people.
I'd say if you were traveling to a SQL Saturday, I do precons at a bunch of those where we focus on performance.
