SPARQL Query Training
Linked data is most valuable when you ask the right questions, and SPARQL helps you do that. This practical course reinforces the principles of linked data and the Semantic Web before showing the full range of possibilities and use cases of the SPARQL query language.
As the material suits your current level, you can begin at the basic level or move on to the intermediate and advanced sections. By the end of the course, you will be able to use SPARQL for structured problem-solving, data analysis, assigning labels to data, and querying multiple datasets simultaneously. You will also be able to read, design, and write queries that extract the answers you need from data across your organization.

How it works
The course can be attended online, at your own offices, or at an off-site location, with groups ranging from three to eight people.
