What this is

Write the queries that answer real business questions — joins, aggregates, window functions and the query patterns analysts use every day. The course covers: SELECT, filtering and sorting on real datasets; Joins across multiple tables without losing rows; GROUP BY, HAVING and aggregate logic that holds up; Window functions: running totals, ranks, period-over-period; CTEs for readable, multi-step analysis; Reading a query plan and fixing the slow parts.

It is a self-paced course of written lessons and exercises. It does not include live instruction, one-to-one coaching or individual feedback on your work, and it cannot promise any particular job, income, ranking, certification or business result — what you get out of it depends on your own situation and the practice you put in.
