Material covered on a Microsoft Access Course
Fri 2nd November 2007
Sometimes it feels like we are set challenges that are made so much harder because of a lack of support. In these difficult situations we must rely upon our inner strength and our personal drive to succeed. However, there is nothing to say that we cannot prepare ourselves a little better to deal with these hurdles. If for example, you find yourself working with Microsoft Access you could consider undertaking training to streamline your performance. By being more aware of the features that this software has to offer, you can potentially achieve better results in a shorter time. Microsoft Access courses at various levels are widely available and come in a variety of formats. Let us review some of the material that is explored during Microsoft Access training.
Basic level training
A basic level Microsoft Access course aims to familiarize the student with the fundamental concepts and features of the software. It is essential to understand how the program constructs a database. Within the database itself are tables which are composed of data about a specific topic. The term 'fields' is applied to the different categories within a table and 'data-types' are the properties of each field.
Intermediate level training
By taking an intermediate level Microsoft Access course, you will learn ways to improve the organisation and ease of use of reports and forms. It is possible to change the format of a report and one way to do this is using the AutoFormat wizard. At this level, users also learn how to perform calculations with data. Calculations are calculated in queries reports and forms but not in tables, so as to save space.
Advanced level training
Advanced level courses will cover material such as SQL (Structured Query Language) which is used to interact with the data within the database. SQL is used for many tasks within Microsoft Access. Microsoft Access courses also cover the use of macros and their application to the automation of tasks. Microsoft Access software can be used to develop application software when used at this advanced level. Non-programmers, on the other hand, can use it to build simple applications. Advanced level users are also able to use Access as a database for web based applications.
This popular relational database management system can facilitate the completion of work when used appropriately. Options for training include e-learning, self-directed learning and instructor-led Microsoft Access courses. Hopefully, if you encounter yourself in a tricky situation when using this software, the benefit of training will enable you to jump over the hurdles in front of you and allow you to finish in first place.

Testimonials
BlackRock Investment Management (UK) Limited Analyst Simon Mantell Excel Intermediate
Fantastic course with excellent energetic tutoring.
I had to do the intermediate course because I didn't feel confident enough for Advanced, however I feel I probably could have benefited from a half day 'refresher intermediate' course before then doing the full advanced day course. but I appreciate not everyone will be at the same level starting the course.
Thank you for an excellent service.
Innocent Drinks Innovation Project Manager Abigail Maitre Leadership Development
The course was really good. i could have gone for something a little bit more challenging. But i have already been in leadership classes and read ots about it so it was maybe deja vu.
The Courtauld Institute of Art Yelena D'attoma Excel Advanced
I was impressed by the level of knowledge and the manner in which concepts were explained. I also appreciated being able to practice what we learned in class, in different exercises which were differentiated so that those who grasped concepts faster than others could work on more complex tasks instead of sitting there waiting for others to complete their exercises.
