COURSE TITLE: Access Fundamentals
LOCATIONS: Hamilton
SUMMARY:
Ardito Corporate Training offers the beginner in Microsoft Access a ‘fundamentals’ course designed to build a thorough understanding of the most common, and important, functions of Access, beginning with the basics of what a database is, and what you can use Access to create.
The course covers a logical range of useful topics, from building tables and forms, to using calculated queries that will refine the data contained in a report. There is also a very useful section on moving data from Excel to other applications including a ‘mail merge’ in Microsoft Word.
The prerequisites for ‘Access Fundamentals’ state “Participants should have completed the Basic Computer Skills course or, preferably have a working knowledge of Microsoft Excel.” This is perhaps not the course for a complete beginner.
There is no mention of any after course care, or any resulting qualifications.

SUMMARY:
With its guaranteed lowest prices in the industry The Knowledge Academy has Microsoft Access training in 6 locations across New Zealand, all being luxury hotels in the various regional capitals. Oh, that low price is 8 times the price of a comparable competitor for Microsoft Access training, so ask about that before you book.
Their Microsoft Access courses include course notes, training exercises and email support and are led by industry experts. ‘World Class Training Instructors’ to quote the website.
Of course, what would be better to know is any sort of actual detail about the course itself, but alas, like so many of its automatically created webpages, The Knowledge Academy doesn’t have a course outline, just Microsoft Access keyworded all over the page. Buyer beware.
