SQL Fall Workshop
Hands-on beginner-friendly SQL session: write real queries against a live dataset using a browser-based tool — just bring a laptop.
Whether you're building your first app, navigating your first job, or just trying to make sense of all the data around you — learning SQL will save you hours and make you way more effective.
In this session, we'll walk through the essentials of SQL in a hands-on, no-pressure format. You'll connect to a real dataset, write actual queries, and start seeing patterns in data that were just noise before.
We'll cover: Pulling and filtering rows (SELECT, WHERE) Sorting and slicing data (ORDER BY, LIMIT) Counting, summing, and grouping Joining multiple tables to build richer results Writing logic into your queries (CASE, filters, basic metrics) This is a working session. You'll be querying from the start using a simple browser-based tool.
Who this is for: If you're early in your dev journey and want to be more fluent in data — this is for you. Even if you've never touched SQL. Even if you've forgotten everything from that one data class.
If you're a few steps ahead, come sharpen your skills and help others along.
Important Bring a laptop. We will be using a web based tool so nothing to install.
