Requirements

None - we will walk you through from an absolute beginner level! No prior knowledge of SQL or PowerBI required
An inquisitive mind and motivation to learn about data!
No need to even have SQL Server downloaded in advance, as we'll show you how to get it installed for free!
Note that SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio) cannot be installed on Mac OS. To install it on your Mac, the "Parallels Desktop" software is required, or the dual-boot to Windows method

Join this course and start gaining the key data analytic skills you’ve always wanted in your tool-belt!

This course will walk you through fundamental data concepts, with practical exercises, in order to build you from an absolute beginner to a skilled user, in both analysis and visualisation, working through the examples together to give you live practice.

Upon enrolling, you’ll gain instant, lifetime access to all sections of the course for Microsoft SQL Server and Power BI, as well as the data files and scripts necessary for the exercises.

Our approach is a stepped approach, meaning that you will keep gaining more and more building blocks as you work through the lectures. This means you will be equipped with the necessary knowledge to conduct data analytics and visualise your data to a professional standard.

You’ll get access to all sections of the course that will teach you the fundamentals from the ground up, supported with over 8 hours of clear, structured content to start your data journey.


The course starts with ‘Core SQL’, where you will gain an in-depth understanding of the core functions in SQL. You will learn creating databases, to the most frequently used queries, to advanced filtering, to bucketing results:

Introduction to the SQL interface and how to navigate and import data

Understanding data types and obtaining data from tables by using the SELECT and FROM statements

Creating new tables using the INTO statement

Applying basic and complex filters on data sets by using WHILE, IN and LIKE statements

Aggregating data to create reports by using the GROUP BY statement

Understanding how to apply non-aggregation and aggregation filtering

Creating new data columns based on constraints and conditions by using the CASE statement

Appending tables using UNION and UNION ALL statements

Utilising data from different tables to create master tables by using the JOIN statement

Things to look out for when managing databases


Next you’ll learn the more advanced SQL functions and concepts in the ‘Intermediate SQL’ section of the course. This includes data conversion, data cleansing, running totals, views, variables, stored procedures, and more:

Understanding and working with NULL values by using ISNULL and COALESCE statements

Using the CAST and CONVERT statements to change data types

Applying window functions (such as RANK and ROW_NUMBER) to introduce a row count and ranking to the data

Using the PARTITION statement to split the window function operations on data (such as running totals)

Using the VIEW statement to create virtual tables and manipulate data

Understanding variables and stored procedures to make SQL code and queries more dynamic


The next (bonus!) section is a ‘SQL Query Walkthrough Guide’ – so you’ll never get lost on how to script your queries correctly!


The final section of this course covers Microsoft’s intuitive ‘Power BI’ data visualisation tool. We go into the importance of data visualisation, show how powerful it is, and build multiple dashboards to gain important data insights:

Understanding the concepts and importance of data visualisation

Understanding how to import data into Power BI directly from SQL

How to navigate through the back end of Power BI and manipulate data to satisfy our needs

How to create meaningful visualisations and dashboards which can be used to show relevant findings


Our mission at Data Civilisation is to give you the building blocks for your journey!

So what are you waiting for? Jump right in and learn about data!
