The Nigeria Computer Society (NCS) and Computer Professional Registration Council of Nigeria (CPN) have concluded plans to host a three-day workshop on Oracle SQL in collaboration with Cedar Technologies Limited.

The workshop scheduled to take place at the Elephant Cement House, Alausa, Ikeja, Lagos, will hold between December 3 and 5, this year.

Acting Executive Secretary, NCS, Mr. Ejide Oladunmoye, said that the 3-day intensive workshop on Oracle: SQL is applicable to Oracle8i, 9i and 10g users.

According to him, introduction to the concepts of relational databases, to create database structures and to store, retrieve, and manipulate data, enable participants to learn to query using Basic SQL statements, restrict, sort, perform single row functions and group the queried data.

In addition, he said, they would be able at the end of the three-day session to write advanced select statements and use advanced techniques such as Rollup, Cube, set operators, and hierarchical retrieval.

“Query multiple tables, perform nested queries, implement constraints, use date and time functions, and create sequences and views among others,” he outlined are some additional things to take home from the workshop.
