This intensive 5-day course provides a comprehensive introduction to SQL (Structured Query Language), the standard language for interacting with relational databases. You’ll learn how to write SQL queries to retrieve, manipulate, and analyze data, a crucial skill for any data scientist. We’ll cover everything from basic SELECT statements to complex joins, subqueries, and window functions. You’ll learn how to design efficient queries, optimize database performance, and work with various data types. This isn’t just theory; you’ll be writing SQL queries from day one, working with real-world datasets and building practical experience.

This course emphasizes hands-on practice. You’ll work with popular database systems (like PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQLite) and learn how to use SQL to perform data cleaning, transformation, aggregation, and analysis. We’ll also explore best practices for database design and how to use SQL to create and manage tables. By the end of this course, you’ll be proficient in SQL and ready to tackle real-world data challenges. You’ll be able to extract the information you need from databases to drive insights and inform data-driven decisions.

By the end of this course, learners will be able to:

  • Write SQL queries to retrieve and manipulate data.
  • Use various SQL clauses and functions.
  • Design and manage relational databases.
  • Optimize SQL queries for performance.
  • Perform data cleaning and transformation using SQL.
  • Apply SQL to analyze data and extract insights.
  • Data scientists, analysts, and business intelligence professionals.
