Teaching SQL as a core skill
SQL is useful, universal, and an evergreen skill. From my experience, it takes some training to write correct and maintainable SQLs. Too many most schools only teach basic database theory stuffs, but not enough on the hands-on knowledge about how to convert problems into SQL queries and how to quickly write SQL queries.
I'm planning to put together a course about SQL to share my learning about SQL. The course is for engineers and analysts who are a few years into the career, have some 'impressions' about SQL but feel the need to dive deeper and get more familiar with SQL.
Here's the course landing page: https://backtosql.com/
Any feedback is welcome!
Wow, really needed this!
Great! Thanks for signing up!
I know SQL really well already so leaving up the spot for someone else but thank you for sharing this for free for early adopters 👍
Thanks for the support!
Is this an email course @junji?
Good Luck. Glad to see somebody flying the SQL flag. I like that you covering covering formating of SQL code ... tabs or spaces ... eek.
Also I tried signing up via bottom link and I got a "Error: Error: Invalid API key." error. The top link worked fine though (i am using FireFox).

Thanks for the support @pteddy78 !
yeah I fixed the bottom sign-up form. For some reasons it wasn't configured properly in carrd.co 🤷♂️
I'm so glad you are pushing SQL! I'm a firm believer that a declarative language such as SQL is the correct fit for a database. This is why our time series database www.hyprcubd.com uses SQL as the query language. Great work!
Thanks Junji, I’ve been using NoSQL DBs for a bit, so I’m rusty in SQL. Very excited for this!
Will your course cover pure SQL syntax or use of SQL within say a python environment also?
Pure SQL. For Python, are you suggesting covering the ORM libraries like Django?
