Course details

The ubiquity of big data means that now, more than ever, there is a burning need to warehouse, access, and understand the contents of massive databases quickly and efficiently. Attaining proficiency in SQL is essential to prepare for our data-driven present and future. It is also crucial to furthering your skills as a data analyst or application developer. In this course, Walter Shields teaches you: the basic structure of databases—what they are, how they work, and how to successfully navigate them; how to use SQL to retrieve and understand data no matter the scale of a database; and how to master the most important SQL query syntax, along with how and when to use it best.

This course includes Code Challenges powered by CoderPad. Code Challenges are interactive coding exercises with real-time feedback, so you can get hands-on coding practice alongside the course content to advance your programming skills.
