Course Overview
Course 55232-A: Writing Analytical Queries for Business Intelligence by Microsoft is designed for information workers and data science professionals who need to extract meaningful insights from relational databases using Transact-SQL (TSQL). This course prepares learners for analytical work in business intelligence environments, focusing on writing efficient queries for reporting and analysis rather than transactional processing. It serves job roles such as Data Analysts, Business Intelligence Specialists, and Reporting Professionals who use tools like Power BI, Excel, and SQL Server Reporting Services. With over 80% of Business Intelligence Specialists holding certifications and 93% acknowledging their professional value, mastering TSQL querying aligns with industry demand and employer expectations across enterprises leveraging Microsoft data platforms.
The course covers key technologies including Transact-SQL, SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), Power BI, Excel, RStudio, and the bcp utility within a hands-on lab environment centered on the CarDeal sample database. Students engage in practical labs where they build SELECT queries, create views, table-valued functions, and stored procedures to encapsulate reusable logic for analytical datasets. A core lab scenario involves connecting directly from client tools like Excel and Power BI to execute ad-hoc queries and export results via SSMS, the Import/Export Wizard, or bcp utility. These exercises simulate real-world workflows where analysts retrieve, shape, and deliver clean, aggregation-appropriate datasets tailored to specific business intelligence needs.
This training supports preparation for the Microsoft Certified: Power BI Data Analyst Associate certification, which validates expertise in modeling, visualizing, and analyzing data—skills highly valued in today’s data-driven organizations. According to industry data, Business Intelligence Specialists in the United States earn a median salary of $125,000, with strong growth potential tied to SQL and Power BI proficiency.
