Relational databases - SQL

The SQL language is used to create databases and their structures as well as to insert, edit, delete and evaluate data using queries. The course teaches the essential elements of SQL based on the ANSI standard in order to develop and manage relational databases with SQL and to implement queries. The course is taught on the Microsoft SQL Server using the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. You will also be introduced to the use of artificial intelligence in the workplace.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
