To handle data big and small, clean or dirty, structured or unstructured, thousands of data teams turn to Snowflake.

Build subqueries and Common Table Expressions (CTEs)
Once you’re confident with CASE statements, you’ll dive head-first into using writing subqueries. Subqueries will give you the power to combine the results on another query in the one that you’re building. You’ll also come to find how common table expressions allow for you to do something quite similar, but this time, it a bit of a more organized way.
By the end of this course, you’ll have the tools you need for manipulating and transforming data in Snowflake, and leveling-up your career as a data professional.
Build your data manipulation skills with the basics of conditional logic. Implement if-then logic data using CASE statements, catch edge cases using ELSE, and transform results using tools like aggregation functions.
Manipulating Data with Subqueries and Common Table Expressions
Don’t just use one query when you can use two (or three)! Unlock the power of subqueries and common table expressions to write cleaner, more modular Snowflake queries. Simplify complex logic, reuse results, and level up your data manipulation capabilities in Snowflake.
