Course OVERVIEW

Description

CPE Credits: 3 Field of Study: Information Technology
Delivery Method: QAS Self Study
Unlike some other programming languages, SQL’s syntax is quite intuitive to understand and use, facilitating many to take their first steps toward working with relational database management systems (RDBMS). But knowing how to apply SQL’s basic instruments—such as aggregate functions, joins, and stored procedures—won’t allow you to reach its full potential. In this course, we’ll extensively cover window functions, common table expressions, and temporary tables to enrich your skill set and toolbox for handling relational databases and reveal plenty of options for data retrieval.

Prerequisites

  • Any SQL environment (such as SQLite, MySQL Workbench, or an online SQL editor).
  • Completion of an introductory SQL course is recommended.
