Introduction to SQL Databases - SQL for Beginners

Course details

Structured Query Language (SQL or "Sequel") is the way we communicate with a relational database. It's an intuitive and powerful language and mastering it is rapidly becoming a prerequisite for career paths outside of software development.

SQL has been one of the most common skill sets required by employers for software developers for years, according to research published by Indeed. That fact is not likely to change any time soon, as businesses have woken up to the reality that the data they capture, generate, and store has tremendous business value to improve performance and efficiency and uncover new paths for growth.

If you're a software developer just getting started, a Business Analyst, a Test Engineer, Project Manager looking to augment your technical skill set, or a data or financial analyst who works primarily with spreadsheets, you'll benefit from taking this course to learn how you can power up your data skills. We start from the ground up to teach you what a relational database is, how to plan and build a database structure, how to get data into your database, and then how to work with it to retrieve meaningful insights using SQL.
