From early database management systems to modern data platforms like Microsoft Fabric, SQL has withstood the test of time. This language can be powerful in its navigation of data relationships, calculation of detailed or aggregate values, or adjustments of records stored in tables. All of these capabilities are fundamental skills for data analysts, regardless of whether you are performing ad-hoc analysis or preparing data for a report.

This introductory session is for those who haven't taken a database course and would like to learn practical SQL querying. Join this workshop to learn SQL from the ground up, starting with the SELECT statement and its primary clauses, moving up to JOINs and functions, and more tools to aid you in your data analysis.
