This course is designed for individuals eager to learn SQL and relational databases. It starts with defining entities and relationships, the basic components of any database. You'll move on to normalization, ensuring your data is well-organized and manageable. Next, you'll define data structures and translate your logical designs into physical database objects using SQL's Data Definition Language (DDL). Finally, you'll learn data manipulation with SQL's Data Manipulation Language (DML), including inserting, updating, and deleting data while maintaining data integrity. By the end of the course, you'll be able to design, implement, and and manage robust databases.
