Just like my other courses, I follow the no-student-left behind principle; which means that I start from the very basics. You do not need any prerequisites to take this course. We move step by step into more advanced topics as we delve into the world of advanced querying techniques using subqueries, aggregations, joins, rollups and cubes, window functions, transposing & ranking data and using conditional expressions in very interesting ways.

KEY BENEFITS OF POSTGRESQL MASTERY
SQL is the universal language for working with databases, enabling you to retrieve, manipulate, and analyze data efficiently. As companies generate immense volumes of data daily, they seek talented professionals who can extract valuable business insights from their databases. With SQL, you’ll gain a versatile skill that opens doors to roles like Database Developer, Data Analyst, Business Intelligence Specialist, or Data Scientist—careers that can earn upwards of $70,000–$90,000 annually for entry-level positions.
By the end of this course, you'll be equipped to confidently tackle SQL interview questions and demonstrate your expertise in real-world scenarios.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR STUDENTS:
Every exercise and its solution are provided directly in the lectures.
In several lectures, I ask students to pause the video and complete the assignment before resuming to watch my solution.
MAKE SURE YOU WORK OUT THE PROBLEMS ON YOUR OWN BEFORE MOVING ON TO MY SOLUTION!!
STUDENT REVIEWS
With over 59,500+ students and a 4.6 rating, you won't find a better source to learn SQL for Data Science elsewhere. Don’t just take it from me, take it from actual students who have taken this course:
★★★★★ You really can't beat this course for the value. The instructor is excellent (clear explanations, easy to understand, extremely knowledgeable), and his style of constantly requiring the student to apply what they've just learned with practice queries proves to be a very effective method of learning. He covers an amazing amount of ground in just 9 hours. It was just the refresher course I needed after not having done much SQL in the past year.

You can’t learn programming from reading books or online fill-in-the-blank type tutorials. Especially the online tutorials with browser based exercises where you code directly in your browser. The problem with that approach is that it doesn’t provide practical experience. It provides an illusion of learning something as it tugs you along to complete an assignment that’s more of a fill-in-the-blank type problem. A student feels like they’ve learned something but that knowledge does not stick. Unfortunately that experience will not help in an interview nor an actual project. Valuable time ends up going to complete waste. At JRP (JobReadyProgrammer), we don’t follow hype. We do what works! We take a traditional route to teaching how to code advancing slowly & patiently in the lectures often repeating key concepts in multiple different ways to help students really solidify the knowledge and mold their foundation to discover how to code properly and then boy do we test the skills! Students are put right in the middle of a practical real-world programming assignment to apply everything they've learned. So enough of those “key in the next few commands to fill in the puzzle and we’ll advance you” kind of tutorials. Here you’ll need to roll up your sleeves and get to work on solving practical programming assignments.

The Master’s in SQL & Data Science course on Infosys Springboard was highly informative. The content is practical, well-structured, and hands-on exercises helped solidify my understanding of SQL queries, joins, subqueries, window functions, and data analysis techniques. The platform is user-friendly and supports applied learning effectively.

This course is very informative. I have no prior experience in data analysis or SQL, yet it was possible for me to understand and learn PostgreSQL. Thank you for guiding me step by step, breaking down all the concepts and analysing the reasons behind each technique. It was very helpful.
By Murali on 9/12/2024
The repetitions are important to drill down the concept and commit to memory. He gives an exposition of a concept and follows it up immediately (within the class itself) with a related problem. That style is very attractive to me. However, one gripe is that he omitted covering several topics like datetime handling and query optimisation (indexing & partitioning).
By Harrmesh Thakkar on 7/26/2023
Trust me I have nothing against the course and the Instructor but due to some or other odd reasons I don't feel like pursuing this course and I am stuck on completing this course. Learning isn't enthusiastic with this course. This is my perspective, but just read the review and take previews if you still want to go further with this course.
By Nikhil Kumar Govindam on 1/12/2021
I think a course book must be provided with this so that we can go through that and revise our course any time without going through all the video content.
By Monica Lewis on 12/6/2020
This is a very thorough and challenging course! There were areas in section 9 where the screen was fading out and difficult to see. There also was a couple of areas that I believed could have been explained or processed differently. These are the only reasons that I did not provide a 5-star rating. I joined Job Ready Programmer for additional training along with what I have already paid for through udemy. I use to program and develop so this is very beneficial as a reminder and to sharpen my skills. Thanks

Very good for begginners
By Asuncion Zambrano on 11/7/2020
I have taken a previous course(The Complete Oracle SQL Certification Course) of Amit and I can honestly say instructors he is within the top 5% of instructors. The only reason I haven't given him full 5 starts is because I haven't seen the rest of this lecture series.

Excellent course, great exercises!
By Juhi Arya on 11/7/2020
Hi Imtiaz, My name is Dhruv Goyal. I completed the SQL course and would like to say a big Thank You for designing such wonderful course. I did a small mistake though. Used my wife's account (Juhi Arya) to buy and complete the course. The certification says obviously her name on it as I was logged in with her account. Can you do something about it and send a new certificate with my name. My email id is goyal.d1990@gmail.com Thanks again. Regards, Dhruv

Solid Course from start to finish. Some of the lessons in last two chapters got a tad redundant, however, this course has taken me from complete newbie in SQL to very comfortable with intermediate level SQL queries. If you do the exercises you will get the most out of this course!
