Good places to learn SQL from? Datacamp not great
What is a good SQL certification program I should take?
Just finished a few SQL certifications including joins on DataCamp. Is this worth having on my LinkedIn and resume throughout the job search or are these useless? (Currently work a non-IT related job in healthcare rn but potentially looking to transition into an analyst role)
Datacamp Learning Path
I enjoy it.
I'm switching between python and SQL with hopes of using them both when I learn enough.
I've learned more about sql than I ever would've and used my knowledge to solve some what I would call advanced queries.

How long are DataCamp Certifications valid for?
Our Technology Certifications are valid for two years from the date awarded. The data industry is moving quickly and it is important to keep your skills up to date, so you will be invited to retake the exams after two years, or if you would prefer, you can attempt to upgrade to a more advanced level certification.
How much do DataCamp Certifications cost?
DataCamp Certification is included with your premium subscription, so there are no additional costs. When you subscribe you will have access to learning materials to prepare for your certification, practice assessments and exams and the certification itself.

So I’ve been going over datacamp and have completed the intermediate sql and the course on Joins etc but recently I tried taking a test for a product firm that required SQL and most of the questions were on joins but I just scored a 12/22. Additionally I am trying to solve the intermediate questions on hackerank related to SQL and I am failing to do so. The basic ones were pretty easy.
I am wondering what resources I should look at to relearn SQL or maybe datacamp gets better as I progress? Idk. So far it seems to gloss over a lot of concepts but there is a lack of application. Or maybe I’m not very good at this and should just stick to corporate finance :/
I'm graduating from college next May and wanted to strengthen my SQL skills.
There isn't a strong program at my college, so planning on doing self-learning
Hi guys,
I have been learning SQL on and off over the past few months and recently just completed a few courses including joins on DataCamp.
Once a course is completed, you are 'awarded' a certification of completion. Are these certs worth putting on your LinkedIn profile under 'Licenses & certifications' and resume when applying for jobs or is this essentially useless?
When applying for jobs, some online applications ask for linkedin profile url. Again, would these datacamp certs be worth placing on your linkedin and resume since it 'proves' that I know SQL joins as well as just general visibility for recruiters for example or should I just leave this off since it does not count for actual real world experience, etc.?
What has been your general experience with this? Graduated w/ a BS in Biology from a few years back and currently work a non-IT related job in healthcare right now but am looking to potentially transition into an analyst role and I live in/near a very large city in the USA by the way if that matters.
Thanks for any feedback/advice I can get on this, greatly appreciated in advance!!
