Many organizations use databases to store their most critical information: the information that manages their day-to-day operations. After the data is stored in databases, however, it is useless unless you can retrieve it for further business analysis. One example of a database management system is Microsoft SQL Server 2012. The language you use to retrieve information from SQL Server 2012 databases is the Structured Query Language (SQL). This course, SQL Querying: Fundamentals, will teach you to use SQL as a tool to retrieve the information you need from databases.

Course Duration: 1 Days

Course Prerequisites for your training in Reading

There are no course prerequisites for this course. However, it would be a good idea to have at least what we would call an intermediate level of Excel knowledge. This would include understanding PivotTables, VLookup.
