Managing SQL for Analysts

Data and Business Intelligence|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers report automation and forecasting techniques from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with data quality management, storytelling with data and visual encoding choices in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Make a decision about data quality management without waiting for a specialist, measured against established visualisation principles
  • Take ownership of storytelling with data rather than escalating it
  • Explain visual encoding choices to someone who does not do the work
  • Spot where SQL querying is failing before it becomes a finding
