Also I finished SPS Course

MVP Academy course was called "Building collaborative applications for SharePortal server". I am using SPS more then one year, and this was quite useful to learn how to manage service better. Unfortunately there was missing part of building web parts, which I was looking for.
Here some useful links:

TechNet Virtual Lab: Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003

Book "The Rational Guide to Building SharePoint Web Parts"

Book "Advanced Sharepoint Services Solutions"
