This course is designed for individuals eager to learn SQL and relational databases. It starts with defining entities and relationships, the basic components of any database. You'll move on to normalization, ensuring your data is well-organized and manageable. Next, you'll define data structures and translate your logical designs into physical database objects using SQL's Data Definition Language (DDL). Finally, you'll learn data manipulation with SQL's Data Manipulation Language (DML), including inserting, updating, and deleting data while maintaining data integrity. By the end of the course, you'll be able to design, implement, and and manage robust databases.

This course begins with foundational lessons on defining entities and relationships, essential components for constructing any database. As you progress, you will delve into the principles of normalization, ensuring your data is organized efficiently and is easily manageable. You'll then learn about defining data structures, where you will translate logical designs into physical database objects using SQL's Data Definition Language (DDL). Finally, you will learn about data manipulation through SQL's Data Manipulation Language (DML), where you will practice inserting, updating, and deleting data while maintaining data integrity. By the end of this module, you will have the skills to design, implement, and manage databases.
