Well done! Thank you!One note, I would have liked the summary review document for the very last section on "Restructuring Tables." That was a little confusing to me.

Exercises and videos are really well done. It would be beneficial for memorization to provide a visual summary of the codes explained at the end of each section.

This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Certificate, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
