Why should I use SQL technology?


  • SQL is one of the most actively sought-after skills on the job market.

  • Administering an SQL server and querying in TSQL today is a full-time job.

  • Furthermore, SQL Server, because of its simplicity, allows you to quickly become competent in very specific subjects. 

  • Once this course is over, believe me that you will be much more comfortable with the SQL language.

  • I also made sure that the videos don't exceed 10 minutes, so it won't be too soporific :)
