Intro To SQL

PowerToFly has Barb on as a guest speaker in the “Intro to SQL” webinar. In this webinar, Barb answers various questions regarding SQL including: “What is SQL?”, “What kind of jobs use SQL?” and “What is a SQL query and what do I need to make one?”, followed by more specific questions that were asked live during the webinar.

Barb explains the difference between SQL, Excel, Tableau and other platforms used for data programming and visualization, and summarizes the 3 step process for data analysis. Barb provides some tips on how to get hands-on SQL practice and some examples for how one can make a transition from SQL queries to real-life projects in the workplace.

This webinar also contains a live, interactive demonstration for how to write a SQL query and filter data using the 3 principal SQL commands: SELECT, FROM, and WHERE, as well as JOIN, a command that many users find confusing to write and understand.
