Relational Database Skills

Business intelligence and data management are of increasing importance to companies, and often central to regulatory compliance. Every major database product requires relational database skills, including Oracle, IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Teradata, and others.

Skills range from the industry-standard Structured Query Language (SQL) for everyday operation, to the data-modelling and design skills needed for project work. Beyond the core database, Business Intelligence tools from database vendors and third parties depend on fundamental skills in data warehouse design.

*Note that for hands-on practical work, a nominated database product will be used.
