SQL (pronounced “ess-que-el”) stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is used to communicate with a database of information. SQL statements are used to perform tasks such as update data on a database, or retrieve data from a database. Some common relational database management systems that use SQL are: Oracle, Sybase, Microsoft SQL Server, Access, etc.

In this hands on workshop, you will learn the basics of SQL. Prior experience with programming languages is recommended but not required. There will be a 30 minute break from 11:30-12 pm.

Open to ages 16 and up.

Presented by Melody Friedenthal.
