I have been an author with Pluralsight for the past 3 years.  Before I was an author I was always a huge fan and I found that for just $29 a month for unlimited access to all training courses is a deal!  They now have over 3,700+ courses to pick from.  What is even better you can get a free 7-day, 200 minute trial or for a limited time get your first month for only $9.95.  See details below.

One of the best covered subjects in the Pluralsight library is Microsoft BizTalk Server!  This is a little surprising because BizTalk is a relatively niche product.  Never the less, they currently have 14 courses covering BizTalk.  Below is a complete list of the BizTalk courses at Pluralsight. 

  • BizTalk 2006 Business Process Management  
  • BizTalk 2006 Fundamentals
  • BizTalk Server 2006 R2 Fundamentals
  • BizTalk 2009 Fundamentals
  • Advanced BizTalk Server 2009
  • BizTalk 2009 Business Process Management
  • BizTalk 2009 and WCF
  • Advanced BizTalk Server 2010
  • BizTalk Server by Example
  • Integrating BizTalk Server with Windows Azure AppFabric
  • What Is New in BizTalk Server 2013 (one of my courses
  • Using Functoids in the BizTalk 2013 Mapper
  • Intro to BizTalk Server 2013 Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) Toolkit (one of my courses)
  • BizTalk Server 2013 from Ground Up: An End to End Scenario

What I hear a lot is with so many courses and some of them being a little older, what is the best learning path for someone wanting to learn BizTalk?  Lets take a look at my recommendations.
