• Using basic subqueries and the set operators

Anyone who needs to understand and use SQL to manipulate a database.

There are no formal pre-requisites for this Introduction to SQL course, although an understanding of databases and exposure to information technology in general would be useful.

To provide the knowledge and skills needed to retrieve data held in a relational database.

There are no formal pre-requisites for the Introduction to SQL course, although an understanding of databases and exposure to information technology in general would be useful. This knowledge can be gained by attendance on the Relational Databases & Data Modelling Overview course.
