In the course, students will learn the basics of the Microsoft SQL Server SQL language. They will be able to write complex SQL queries, modify data in databases and create tables and other SQL server objects.
It is recommended for software developers, database administrators, business analysts, software testers and users working on reports with little or no knowledge of SQL.
No previous knowledge is required.
Almost every developer needs some level of SQL knowledge, and it is hard to imagine a field of programming today where you can succeed without it. Besides programmers, anybody working with databases could take advantage from learning SQL. In this course, participants will learn the basics of the SQL language and how to to write queries and data modification statements.
The course will place a strong emphasis on acquiring practical knowledge. Consequently, students will become familiar with the most commonly used tools for SQL databases. In the final part of the course, students will gain insight into the true power of SQL by creating tables and other objects.
