Start Here! Our Data Warehousing Workshop is designed for learners who are new to Snowflake, or new to databases in general. This workshop is highly interactive with reflection questions, hands on lab work and automated lab work checks! Fast-paced and informative, light in tone, scenario-driven and metaphor rich.
As our flagship course, there are no prerequisites. You should know how to use a web browser but beyond that, you don't even need to know what a database is! It does NOT require prior experience with Snowflake.
We do our work alongside Tsai Yang, a data engineer who is reviewing Snowflake for her company's possible move to Snowflake. We also observe as Tsai introduces Snowflake and database concepts to her Uncle Yer, who has never used a database before but finds Snowflake clear and easy to learn.
Most learner take between 8 and 12 hours to complete this workshop.
This course is not for learners who require step-by-step instructions. You will be expected to independently apply previously learned concepts to new tasks without step-by-step guidance.
To complete the workshop, you will watch videos, answer quizzes, and finish labs auto-graded by DORA, our grading robot. DORA will issue your badge within 24 hours of course completion.
Don't sign up for a trial account until you are given step-by-step instructions within the course flow. Since this is the first course, we are more precise with the steps.
