T-SQL (Transact-SQL) is a programming language used to manage and manipulate data in Microsoft SQL Server and Azure SQL Database. T-SQL is widely used by developers and data professionals to create, modify, and query databases. A T-SQL course typically covers the following topics:

• Introduction to SQL: Overview of SQL, relational databases, and how SQL is used in managing data
• Data Definition Language (DDL): How to create and modify database objects such as tables, views, and indexes
• Data Manipulation Language (DML): How to insert, update, delete, and query data using T-SQL
• T-SQL Functions: How to use built-in functions to perform calculations and manipulate data
• Joins and Subqueries: How to combine data from multiple tables using JOINs and subqueries
• Stored Procedures and Functions: How to create and execute stored procedures and functions
• Transactions: How to ensure data consistency and integrity using transactions
• Error Handling: How to handle errors and exceptions in T-SQL code
• Performance Tuning: Best practices for optimizing query performance and improving database performance
• Advanced T-SQL: Advanced topics such as window functions, pivoting and unpivoting data, and working with XML data

A T-SQL course also includes hands-on exercises and real-world case studies to help participants develop practical skills and apply what they have learned in a business context. The course may be delivered through online videos, tutorials, instructor-led training sessions, or a combination of these formats.
