Just to throw in my 2 cents....

I have in the past trained many CF developers and the way I always went
about it, sometimes becoming a hated boss because of it was this...

Until I felt that they had SQL at a level that I was comfortable with I
would not allow the use of a "Query Builder" once I felt that they were at a
level were they could debug the SQL as to what was going on, not only would
I promote the use of a "Query Builder" but almost required it as it is
faster to build most queries that way....

Again, just my 2 cents...

That's sort of an amusing statement really. What you are suggesting is that
the developer "disconnect" themselves from the actual programming of the
site. Do you promote the use of frontpage/dreamweaver also? It is alot
quicker to write html in a WYSIWYG. However, what happens when you ask that
developer who just spent 30 seconds building a query to debug the results?
Or possibly explain why a join is not quite working as advertised?

Sometimes taking shortcuts like the query builder or WYSIWYG editors costs
more on the backend.
