Course Description

This course teaches the basics of the SQL language to create, delete, control, query, manipulate, and analyze data in relational databases.


Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
Gain the fundamentals of SQL: learn to write simple SQL queries to interact with a database.
Understand relational database concepts: become familiar with database structure, tables, and relationships between them.
Master data manipulation techniques: know how to insert, modify, delete, and query data efficiently.
Use joins and subqueries: learn to combine and filter data from multiple tables.
Optimize SQL usage: understand how to write performant queries adapted to users’ specific needs.


Who Is This Course For?

The course is intended for a broad audience, including:
Beginners in database management: For those who want to learn the basics of SQL.

Data Analysts: For those who want to extract and analyze data with SQL.

Beginner Developers: For developers who want to integrate SQL into their applications.

Project managers or managers: For those who want to understand data management and collaborate with technical teams.

IT or data science consultants: For consultants who want to master SQL.


Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of information systems.


Program

The course program is structured around several main modules:
Introduction to databases and basic SQL queries

  • Introduction to relational databases: understand what a database is, tables, and relationships between them.
  • Basic SQL syntax: learn to write simple SQL queries to extract, insert, update, and delete data.
  • SELECT queries: introduction to selecting data, using WHERE, ORDER BY, and LIMIT clauses.
  • Data manipulation: using INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE commands to manage database data.
  • Creating and managing tables: learn to create tables, define primary and foreign keys, and understand integrity constraints.
  • Hands-on workshops: solve practical cases to manipulate data using SQL queries.

  • Advanced techniques and query optimization
  • SQL joins: understand and apply joins (INNER JOIN, LEFT JOIN, RIGHT JOIN) to combine multiple tables.
  • Subqueries: introduction to subqueries and their use to perform complex operations on data.
  • Aggregation functions: learn to use functions such as COUNT, SUM, AVG, MIN, MAX to aggregate data.
  • SQL query optimization: learn best practices to write faster, more efficient queries (indexes, using EXPLAIN, and performance management).
  • Transaction management: introduction to using transactions to ensure data integrity with COMMIT and ROLLBACK.
  • Hands-on workshops: implement the techniques learned through concrete workshops and case studies.
