SQL Crash Course for Beginners

You’ll find SQL in almost every company, so demand for data professionals with SQL skills is through the roof, and that’s not changing any time soon.

A lot of folks are intimidated by SQL, but it’s actually one of the easiest languages to learn. You just need to know where to start.

In this live session, Maven instructor and Data Scientist Alice Zhao will walk you through the basics and point you in the right direction so you can take your SQL game to the next level.

What You'll Learn:
1) Foundational SQL concepts like relational databases, and the Big 6 of SQL querying
2) Syntax basics so you can start querying with real data immediately
3) Where you should focus your learning to maximize results

This session was part of our OPEN CAMPUS week in October, which included 6 days of live expert sessions.

I work in finance and recently started replacing excel with SQLite for my data analysis just for the sake of learning a new skill, my reporting from 99.9% accuracy to 150%, because there can be no cells missed and querying is soooo easy thanks so much for these tutorials

OMG! THIS WAS AMAZING Alice. I just completed a free SQL beginners bootcamp on youtube. While I was able to actually do the work and follow, I absolutely LOVE this 30 minute tutorial and it would have helped me tremendously had I watched this video first.
