  • It contains the complete theory course for passing the SQLP certification exam.

With data, together with data and people


Benefits of the SQLP Certification

  • It gives you superpowers when changing jobs.


    • At financial institutions and various large corporations, holding an SQLP certification increases your chances of being hired by 30%.

    • If the probability of successfully changing jobs was 50%, it increases to 80%.


  • You can change your role to DBA or DA.


    • DBAs and DAs account for only 5% of development personnel, making them highly scarce.

    • Since it requires a high level of technical expertise, it is not easy to enter this field.

    • At this point, if you hold an SQLP certification, the DA team will recruit you even if you don’t want to go.

    • DBAs and DAs command freelance rates that are approximately 1.5–2 million won higher per month.

    • It’s an attractive field.

    • You can remain active in the field even into your 50s and 60s.


  • Holding DAP / SQLP certifications can lead to faster promotions and enable you to present the company's data vision

    • You can see the development of your company, D.A.

    • That level of expertise is naturally cultivated during the learning process.

    • You can work as a data modeler or tuner on various projects within the company.

    • Your skills can be recognized within the company, which naturally leads to faster promotions.

    • Depending on the company, you may also receive a certification allowance.

    • You can earn the trust of your colleagues through your high level of expertise.


Key points when choosing SQLP certification training

  • Have they produced many successful candidates?


  • How many testimonials from successful candidates are there?

    • Refer to the Data and People's success stories board (https://cafe.naver.com/f-e/cafes/25614152/menus/27)

    • To pass the SQLP certification exam, be sure to read success stories from those who passed.

    • If you read at least 5–10 success stories, your study period will be shortened.

    • By reading success stories, you can avoid trial and error and choose the fastest path to passing.

    • In the comments on success stories, you can often see remarks like, “I would have had a hard time passing if it weren’t for the instructor...”

    • Below is a non-major job seeker’s account of passing the SQLP exam. – A screenshot of part of a passing story from Data and People (https://naver.me/5imRgmwx)


  • Does the instructor have consulting experience in real-world settings?

    • 22 years of data consulting experience in the financial sector (Korea Exchange Credit Card, Hyundai Hi-Car Direct) and 7 years on large-scale public-sector projects.

    • Data consulting experience on large-scale domestic projects (project budgets of KRW 100 billion or more)

    • DBMS tuning experience at top-tier major corporations.



  • How much SQLP teaching experience do you have?

    • Over 30 years of teaching experience since 1995


    • Conducted numerous SQL tuning courses at Samsung Electronics and Asiana IDT

    • For 10 years since May 2016, conducted SQLP training for 35 cohorts at Data & People

    • Data & People started offering SQLP certification courses earlier than anyone else.

    • Every cohort fills up early (I’ve also heard that course registration closes as quickly as “class enrollment.”)




  • Is there a study secret to passing?



    • After completing the basic course, you can take the problem-solving course (in person) at Data and People.


What is the structure of this course?

  • It starts with very easy material so that anyone capable of implementing basic SQL can take the course.

  • Starting with basic index configuration, this course covers SQL tuning overall.

  • It’s not difficult. It can be easily understood through repeated learning.

  • Numerous solutions to past practical exam questions (15 points) are provided.


Who should take this course?

  • Those who are preparing to take the exam but feel like they’re alone in the middle of a desert.

  • Those who want to transition into a DBA role but only know Java.

  • (SQL tuning-related) Those who feel like they almost understand it but can’t give a precise answer when someone actually asks them.

    • For your reference, knowledge you cannot explain to others is not truly your own.


  • Those who feel like it’s about to burst with just one touch, but it still doesn’t burst.

    • I’ll pierce it with a large needle for you. After taking this course, you’ll feel relieved as everything clicks into place.


  • Those who have read the book once but feel frustrated when they actually try to tune SQL.

  • Those who desperately need SQL tuning in their practical work

  • Those preparing to take the SQLP exam and needing to build a foundation

  • Those who, no matter how much they read the book, simply cannot make sense of what it is saying.

※ We thoroughly explore everything from the very basics of tuning to its deepest aspects.

However, it isn’t difficult. In fact, it’s fun.

It even feels like a decade-old blockage has been refreshingly cleared.

Those who have attended my lectures know that they are incredibly easy, and...

Also, I repeat things so relentlessly that your ears will practically develop scabs, making it impossible for you to get through without understanding and memorizing them.



A Message from Data and People

Data and People (https://cafe.naver.com/dbstudydapsqlp) has been teaching DAP and SQLP certification preparation courses since 2016. We were the first to offer DAP and SQLP certification preparation courses, and we believe we have produced the most successful candidates as well.


Many members of Data and People have repeatedly requested the “release of an online course.”

At last, I’m bringing to Inflearn online the material I’ve taught offline for the past 10 years.


Starting with the very basics, this course covers everything, including in-depth content on SQL tuning as a whole.

It may be somewhat challenging, but I think you’ll still find it enjoyable if you experience yourself gradually improving.


I’ve also included practice problems throughout the lectures and added a process for solving them together.


It covers the entire database tuning process I have experienced in the field over the past 30 years.

Study together and earn your SQLP certification.

The SQLP certification will change your lives.

Thank you.
