Access XP
Although 21.5 million workers use technology as part of their jobs, only two in five have ever received any formal IT training. The productivity benefits of IT are maximised if people have the right skills to use the packages available to them. This course will help users unlock the power of Microsoft Access.
Access XP is a database management program that makes it easy to store and find information, analyse data and create accurate reports. Building on a basic understanding of database theory and planning, this course will explain how to create tables and populate them with data, organise information, use filters and sort data, create relationships between tables, and import data from other sources.
Who is the course for?
Access XP is ideal for anyone who needs to use Access to manage product stock, customer, or any other data, including administrative, specialist and customer service staff. The easy-to-follow, step-by-step format is perfect for people who are completely new to Access, while the high level of detail will suit those who have a basic understanding but want to learn more about the different features and functions. There aren't any formal entry requirements, but familiarity with spreadsheets and Windows-based packages is expected.
When you have completed this course, you will be able to use Access XP to:
- create, modify and maintain simple business databases, like customer lists or inventory
- view, change or analyse business data through the use of different Access tools, like queries
- add, delete or change data using different features, like forms or tables
- organise, summarise and share data using reports and printing.
