How Our SQL Fundamentals Part II Course Works
Even though SQL is half a century old, it’s one of the most important skills to learn if you want a data career. Big companies like Uber, Netflix, and Airbnb all use SQL. Also, it’s more in-demand now than ever. Currently, over 50% of data job postings on Indeed list SQL as a required skill.
At Dataquest, it’s our job to help you develop these in-demand data science skills so that you excel in your data science career. Since SQL is such a prominent part of data science, we’ve created our SQL Fundamentals skill path, including this course. We’ve carefully designed our lessons to give you the structure you need as well as the freedom to explore and maximize learning.
Here at Dataquest, we believe in learning by doing. That’s why we’ll never ask you to sit through boring training videos or ineffective “fill-in-the-blank” questions. Instead, we believe the best way to learn data science skills is by solving real problems with actual code.
Additionally, with Dataquest, you’ll never learn alone. By signing up with us, you’ll become a part of our supportive community of data learners and professionals who are eager to help you overcome any obstacle. And if you ever need a little extra help, our powerful and responsive support tools are just a click away.
