Course Overview
The Developing Data Models with LookML course by Google is designed for data analysts, analytics engineers, and BI developers aiming to master scalable data modeling using Looker Modeling Language (LookML). This training supports professionals preparing for the Google Cloud certification pathways related to Looker, particularly those targeting roles in data curation and semantic modeling. Participants should have foundational knowledge of SQL, Git, and the Looker interface, with prior experience in data exploration being beneficial. As enterprise adoption of Looker grows—driven by Google’s integration of Looker into its Cloud platform—demand for skilled LookML developers has surged, with 70% of large organizations now leveraging Looker for self-service analytics.
This course provides hands-on experience with core Google Cloud tools including Looker IDE, BigQuery, and Git-based version control systems, enabling students to build and manage LookML projects effectively. Learners work within the Looker development environment to model dimensions, measures, and Explores, and create derived tables to extend existing datasets. A key lab component involves constructing a complete LookML model from scratch, including defining joins, setting up persistent derived tables, and implementing datagroups to manage caching policies. Students also convert user-defined dashboards into LookML-managed assets, simulating real-world scenarios where standardized, reusable data models are deployed across large organizations for consistent reporting.
By completing Developing Data Models with LookML, learners gain critical skills that align with Google Cloud’s Looker certification tracks, enhancing career advancement in high-demand analytics roles. Certified professionals report salary increases of 15–25%, with mid-level Looker developers earning between $10,000 and $14,000 monthly.
