Apply structured query language in relational databases

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to produce structured query language (SQL) statements to work with server-side scripts, enabling web developers to interact with web server databases.

The unit applies to individuals in a range of roles who are responsible for creating server-side interaction with dynamic web pages, using SQL as a means of communicating with databases.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The candidate must demonstrate the ability to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including evidence of the ability to:

apply structured query language (SQL) to a relational database and gather required information according to task requirements.

In the course of the above, the candidate must:

generate queries for one or more tables and provide required data

add, modify, retrieve and delete records from database tables as required test and verify SQL statements.

The candidate must be able to demonstrate knowledge to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including knowledge of:

organisational policies and procedures relating to SQL application including:

identifying SQL requirements from job specifications

testing and verifying SQL results

features and application of primary and foreign keys in database tables, aggregate functions and clause functions required in SQL application

principles of "combining and/or condition" in SQL statements and Boolean operators

IN and BETWEEN conditional operators

mathematical operators

table joins (relationships)

documentation techniques relevant to applying structured query language in relational databases

SQL statement testing methodologies.

Skills in this unit must be demonstrated in a workplace or simulated environment where the conditions are typical of those in a working environment in this industry.

This includes access to:

task specification documentation

structured query language (SQL)

industry standard software packages

an integrated development environment (IDE)

a database server

required hardware, software and its component.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
