How can I join tables in PostgreSQL?
In PostgreSQL, you can join tables using SQL JOIN clauses to combine rows based on related columns. The most common types are INNER JOIN, which returns matching rows from both tables; LEFT JOIN, which returns all rows from the left table and matching rows from the right; and RIGHT JOIN, the reverse of a left join. You can also use FULL JOIN to return all rows when there is a match in either table and SELF JOIN to join a table itself. Learning how to use joins effectively is a core part of SQL for PostgreSQL training.

Testimonial
PostgreSQL made simple
"The documentation was very detailed and will be useful to refer back to for any Postgres DBA work in future. Tarn's presentation was a good mixture of practical examples and whiteboards, very well explained and he is obviously a subject matter expert. The exercises were really effective in consolidating the learning material."
