We are living in the age of Artificial Intelligence, where tools like AI assistants can generate SQL queries in seconds. However, to use these tools effectively, you still need a solid understanding of how databases work and how SQL is structured.

This crash course is designed to give you that foundation quickly. Instead of spending months studying theory, you will learn the most important SQL concepts step-by-step so you can confidently understand, verify, and refine SQL queries generated by AI tools better. By the end of this course, you will not only write SQL yourself but also collaborate with AI more effectively when solving real-world data problems.

Another important point: once you learn SQL fundamentals, it does not matter much which database system you use. The core SQL concepts are almost the same across popular systems such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database, and SQLite.

In this course, we use PostgreSQL because it is powerful, widely used, and an excellent choice for learning SQL.
