Description
Hi
With so much data stored in SQL databases, how can we get at it ?
You use SQL to get at this data, no matter what the SQL Database product is (e.g SQL Server, Oracle and many more).
Coding SQL to analyse data can be a daunting and complex task, hence the reason for building this course.
In this course I will teach you how code SQL to perform data analysis in order to answer complex questions that you will encounter daily in your job.
Ask yourself these simple questions ...
Do you know all of the TABLE JOIN types that can be applied in a SQL query ?
Have you ever used OUTER APPLY, which is so easy and powerful to use ?
Can you write a running total in a single line of SQL ?
Where do you use a ROLLUP statement and why would you use it ?
What is LAG() ?
If you could not answer these simple questions then this course will definitely change all of that for you.
You definitely should know all of this to survive the SQL environment you work in !
All course materials are provided e.g. Sample databases (with real data), code scripts, practice exercises and quizzes.
Don't forget, there is a 30 Day money back guarantee if this course does not deliver what you expected.
Stay safe and well
Best Regards

G'Day and Welcome,
My name is Paul Scotchford and I am stoked that you are reading this.
When I get reviews like this one "oh my goodness. I cracked an Interview using this course" then I know the course material is hitting the spot ...
News: Just released - SQLServer 2019 Data Analytics & Tableau Data Visualisation , this is a deep dive for beginner Data Analysts looking to become highly proficient in SQL and data visualisation, in this course you cover everything and the display results in Tableau.
As well as my normal consulting work in business and government I teach here on Udemy, there are 3 very distinct technology specialisations I work within and these are QlikView, Qlik Sense and SQL Server for delivering Data Analytics and Visualisations and in my downtime I go out and fly as a private pilot (that's my passion too) .
I have also been flagged as a Top-responding instructor which means that your Q&A will typically be answered within 24 Hours. In addition my Qlik courses are now offered on Udemy For Business (UFB) .
QlikView and QlikSense
Professionally I have been delivering QlikView solutions to business and government users for the past 8 years and Qlik Sense since it first released in 2014. Qlik delivers these products to the market and is an industry leader in the BI and Analytics world.
SQL Server
I have been delivering data analytics with the SQL Server (Tech Stack) for more than 17 years as this technology (in my humble opinion) is the best Relational Database and Data Warehouse (Mart) product on the market and will continue to be well into the future.
Summary
Because of my passion and experience working with these technologies in the real-world you can be assured that you will be getting first class training from my courses here on Udemy.
I am super stoked and looking forward to sharing my ongoing experience and passion for data analytics with you.
Looking forward to seeing you in one of my courses soon.
News: Coming in Feb/March 2021 a highly detailed Qlik Sense course , stay tuned!
Stay safe and well , looking forward to you joining in the courses.
Kind Regards
Paul
