Do you think this is the right approach to starting my BI career?

Would you recommend a video-based business intelligence training course to get jump-started with SQL Server 2008 (for example, from www.sqlusa.com or other training sites)? For hands-on practice, I installed SQL Server 2008 Developer Edition on my PC.
