My one tip to learn SQL faster for a data analyst career

In this video I share insider tips on how to learn SQL the right way, and set yourself up for success in your data analysis career. My high-level advice is to focus on data handling (i.e. what the code is doing and why you'd need it) while you're learning the syntax.

Accordingly if you're looking for the best SQL courses, make sure to filter out the ones that focus solely on syntax, like a dry old textbook, and fail to explain the context in which you'd actually use code. The best way to do this is to look for a course with a "real business problem solving" component.

-- WHAT IS DATA LAUNCHPAD? --

We bring the boring to life and make the complex simple, specialising in SQL, data analysis, data science, statistics, and visualisation.
Learn the fundamentals right, then land the best data-driven jobs.

-- THE VIDEO --
The main point in this video is that instead of the bootcamp approach to learning SQL (i.e. starting by memorising every little bit of syntax), budding data analysts should learn first and foremost about data handling, with SQL as their main tool.
The difference is subtle but important, with the main result that:
1. You will learn SQL itself faster.
2. You will learn the more transferable and necessary skill of data handling.
