I have a degree in MIS, and have worked for IBM as a Database Analyst using Brio, and currently doing more database work, but light programming. I'm about to take a SQL class, but I'm wondering if this is the way to go. I've heard of the MCDBA and want to know what all should I know if I decide to pursue it, and would a job in Database Administration be fufilling and what are the salaries looking like for a beginner.
