Description
This course is designed to give a detailed introduction to using and understanding structured query language (SQL) for manipulating business data. More and more companies rely on IT systems that store information in databases. This information is typically retrieved using SQL and its use is becoming widespread amongst not just IT teams but business users also.
The course contains walk through videos, printed documents of the course material as well as links to resources you need to be able to carry out the course.
The course is laid out over 3 levels starting with the very basics and assumes no prior SQL knowledge, right up to level 3 where we will be looking at Microsoft SQL Server specific functionality to really harness the power of a SQL database.
