MCSA SQL Server

 

About

Earning an MCSA: SQL Server certification will qualify you for a position as a database developer or database analyst.

What is SQL? How can I learn this language? How can I use SQL to access and manipulate data in SQL Server, mySQL and Oracle?

Databases are an integral part of any organization. Retrieving information is just as important as capturing it. However, none of this can be done without basic knowledge of SQL. The course is centred on learning SQL, a query language used to communicate with a database. This language is responsible for catering and maintaining information inside a database. It is also used as a source for reporting applications such as crystal reports which provide user-friendly retrieval of information which is widely requested at customer and managerial levels.

 

The course is split up into 3 modules: 750 Euro Per Module

  • 70-461 Querying Microsoft SQL Server (40Hrs = 14 Lectures X 3Hrs)

If you do not have the necessary requirement we also provide you with foundation courses that will provide you with the entry requirement for your diplomas.
When can I apply for a course and when are the closing applications?
Applications are open year round and normally close 2 months in advance of course commencement for degree courses and one month in advance for other courses. Some of our courses fill up fast and have waiting lists; we therefore, suggest that you apply as early as possible to avoid disappointment.
When is the course commencement date?
The ICCS, DC, BSc 2nd year and BSc final year start in October. While the MSc starts in January. Short courses normally start every January and June. IT Professional Courses normally run 3-4 times a year. Extra courses might be organised during the year, depending on applications, so if you are raring to go send us an e-mail and we’ll tell you if you are in luck!! Check the STC Calendar for the exact starting date.
I want to join the degree programme but I will be unavailable for an extensive period of time during my studies?
The education programmes we offer are extremely flexible and modular in form. This means that generally speaking students can plan their own study time. If there is a particular event in your life, which requires a period of time where you will have to be absent from classes, talk to us (ideally much in advance!) and we will be able to guide you! In case, of unexpected circumstances students are able to apply for an extension which will then need to be approved.
