This is the only course you’ll need to take to get started with dbt and Analytics Engineering! 2023 Update! Greetings to the MOST COMPLETE, CONTINUOUSLY UPDATED independent dbt™ (Data Build Tool) software course in the world – as of 2023! This course is both the TOP RATED and the BESTSELLER dbt course on Udemy!
Thank you for joining us for The Complete dbt (Data Build Tool) Bootcamp: Zero to Hero – we are super excited to have you in the course!
The structure of the course is designed to have a top-down approach. It starts with the Analytics Engineering Theory – all you need to know is to put dbt (Data Build Tool) in context and to have an understanding of how it fits into the modern data stack. We start with the big picture; then, we go deeper and deeper. Once you learn about the pieces, we are going to shift to the technicalities – a practical section -, which will focus on putting together the dbt “puzzle”. The practical section will cover each and every single dbt feature present today through the construction of a complete, real-world project; Airbnb. This presents an opportunity for us to show you which features should be used at what stage in a given project, and you will see how dbt is used in the industry.
