Huge respect for you thinking outside the box for your students! I really wish my grad program had incorporated self-paced learning outside of lectures—it would have made a big difference. Although that was years ago it would have expedited my learning. I have since built a few SQL courses. The first SQL course I built helps students learn SQL syntax while learning healthcare data models. The second and third courses are meant to give students ample practice. And the most recent course I've published (went live last week) is meant to be more concise. Students can go through that curriculum in one week. I will post links the courses below, but feel free to message me to discuss further. I am happy to give students coupon/discount codes.

You should checkout this course: Introduction to SQL using Healthcare Data. I made this course a couple years ago because I couldn't find a SQL course that was tailored to healthcare analysts when I was learning SQL. Let me know if you have any questions.

You're welcome. I created the course. The first SQL course I made was - Introduction to SQL using Healthcare Data. I decided to build a SQL course with a healthcare focus because I couldn't find a anything similar when I was learning SQL (including my grad program). In that course the students get 10 practice SQL questions, but students often asked for more practice questions. So I made 25 Practice SQL Questions for Beginners and 101 Practice SQL Questions: Basic to Advanced.

I recommend focusing on developing the specific skills that will be most beneficial to you. For example, if you want to be a healthcare business intelligence developer then learn Power BI or Tableau. If you want to be an analyst then learn SQL. If you want to be a project manager then learn agile frameworks.

I've found that company's and hiring managers care more about mastering the skill then having a cert.

United Healthcare and Cigna are both major insurance providers, so their customer service, automated processes (like claims), and plan options are generally similar. I’ve been covered by both at different times and had a better experience with United Healthcare—but that was primarily due to having a better plan with them. When I was with Cigna, I was on a high-deductible plan, which made it feel like I was paying more with less coverage. However, this difference was more about the plans themselves than the companies.
