Microsoft Certified IT Professional: Database Developer (MCITP: Database Developer) certification demonstrates that you can design a secure, stable, enterprise database solution by using Microsoft SQL Server 2005.

Database developers design and implement relational database models (logical and physical) and database storage objects. They also program servers by using user-defined functions, triggers, stored procedures, Transact-SQL, or the CLR. They retrieve or modify data by using SQL queries or tune and optimize queries. Database developers are typically employed by medium-sized to large organizations.

How to earn your MCITP: Database Developer

To achieve this certification, you must pass three exams: one Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) prerequisite exam and two Professional Series exams.

This certification will retire when Microsoft discontinues mainstream support for the related technology.
