Core Database Skills

Data defines our world. We take the world around us and we conceptualise it into data. We then store that data and write algorithms to process it and, generally speaking, produce more data. Having the skills to work with data inside of a database is one of the final steps to being able to write software, especially for the web.

In this micro-course, we introduce you to the concept of the database, specially the relational database. These technologies, concepts, and tools have stood the test of time. They've been around for literal decades and they power virtually every single website you've ever used and continue to use.

This micro-course is beginner friendly and perfect for someone who has never known a database or SQL before now. It's ideal for the University student who needs a more precise, guided tour of databases and SQL.
