As a Novice where do I start?

I do a lot of data cleansing in my current role. This involves processing tens of million of prospect and Customer data records on quarterly basis to be loaded onto a marketing database for direct mail and telemarketing campaigns.
I use a software call Cygnus which is a mail sorting software but also not a bad ETL tool. I recently came across Talend in a MDM migration programme at work - also this may be used in a new enterprise data warehouse function that my company is setting up.
I like to teach myself Talend and obtain the necessary certifications. However after reading a lot on the Talend webpage still unsure where to start.
My skills include writing microsoft sql server scripts for queries and I have basic knowledge of how database are built/implemented
My aim in the next 12 months is to be a competent Talend user and to get a job that require such skill set
Can you please help?

Hi samunj,
It is highly recommended to do the DI Basics course before attempting the exam(Talend Certification) so that you increase your chance of succeeding in the exam.
Best regards
