SQL stands for Structured Query Language and to learn SQL one needs Structured Learning. Here is the list of the books I personally share my passion with. Rick Morelan, a visionary and with simple goal of spreading SQL Server knowledge with everybody has written following series of Joes 2 Pros.
All volumes explains complex SQL Concepts in simplest possible manners.

Classroom Learning
These books are written by keeping in mind beginners to experts. There is something for everybody in this book. I am also very glad that these books has been adopted as a course by Koenig Solutions. They are offering two options for people to learn SQL Server and pass certification along with the same.
Course 1: Learning Joes 2 Pros End to End (20 days fast track)
Course 2: Learning Joes 2 Pros Core Concepts (7 days fast track)
These courses are based on Joes 2 Pros book and officially adopted using labs and quiz. This course is ideal for the beginner who wants to do all the hands on that makes is possible to go way past just passing the certification test. This allows you to have the knowledge to be ace most SQL Job interviews.
