Program Overview<br />

Most businesses today use some form of shared data<br />

to serve the needs of their enterprise. Many database<br />

management system (DBMS) products have been<br />

developed to meet these needs. The need for qualified<br />

professionals to manage these systems has never been<br />

greater.<br />

Our Certificate in Database Systems is designed for<br />

technical professionals who want to enrich their careers by<br />

learning the principles and practices involved in designing,<br />

administering, tuning, and using shared databases. The<br />

certificate will provide you with not only broad, general<br />

knowledge of database systems and concepts, but<br />

also state-of-the-art practical skills needed by DBMS<br />

profession als. Whether your focus is installing a database<br />

management system, using data warehousing or data<br />

mining techniques to provide decision support information<br />

or writing programs that interface with a DBMS, this<br />

combination of general and practical knowledge will<br />

prepare you to take on challenging DBMS positions in<br />

today’s technology-dependent workplace.<br />

Certificate Requirements<br />

To obtain the Certificate in Database Systems, you must<br />

complete “Relational Database Essentials,” plus five<br />

elective courses for a minimum total of 14 units.<br />

For additional requirements, see page 4.<br />

Recommended Course Sequence<br />

We recommend that students begin with “Relational<br />

Database Essentials” and that numbered courses<br />

(those ending in I, II and III) be taken in consecutive<br />

order. Otherwise, you may take courses in this program<br />

in any order and in any combination.<br />

Required Courses<br />

Relational Database Essentials<br />

CMPS.X466.3 (3.0 quarter units)<br />

Any application that needs to process and store large<br />

amounts of information will likely use a commercial<br />

database management system (DBMS). This course<br />

provides in-depth knowledge of the concepts behind<br />

a DBMS, and then focuses on issues related to practical<br />

database design. Students learn how to create conceptual,<br />

logical and physical designs of relational databases<br />

in response to a set of user requirements. The course<br />

will lay a solid foundation for technical professionals<br />

and others who want to pursue a career in databases<br />

and apply that knowledge to the next level of SQL<br />

Server as well as the Oracle series of classes. Topics<br />

include relational database concepts, entity-relationship<br />

model, normalization, SQL fundamentals, and data<br />

warehouse fundamentals.<br />

Prerequisite(s): Familiarity with general database<br />

concepts.<br />

Data Warehouse Solutions<br />

and Business Intelligence<br />

CMPS.X434.8 (2.0 quarter units)<br />

This course provides students with the knowledge<br />

needed to plan and implement a business intelligence<br />

solution using data warehouse technology. It covers<br />

the various aspects of data warehousing, including<br />

process, architecture, tools, multi-dimensionality, data<br />

marts, requirements, implementation approaches, and<br />

how to implement successful projects. The instructor<br />

will share real-world cases of data warehouse and BI<br />

applications. As part of the project, students will learn<br />

to define requirements, and perform basic design tasks,<br />

such as developing the Kimball matrix and designing<br />

subject areas.<br />
