Course Overview
Master Microsoft Access with this comprehensive beginner to advanced MS Access course
**This course includes practice exercises and LIFETIME access**
Microsoft Access remains an amazing tool for when your data outgrows spreadsheets. Unlike many other database tools, it’s far more user-friendly and ideal if you’re not a developer.
This huge-value Microsoft Access bundle is made up of two full MS Access courses, Access for Beginners and Access Advanced. If you are brand new to Microsoft Access, that's no problem. We start at the very beginning and take you on a journey to becoming an Access database superstar.
We take a project approach to this course, which means you build your own project out as we go. By the end of this Access 2019 course, you will be using Advanced Access functions such as VBA and Macros and SQL.

Here’s what our students are saying…
“This was a great course. I already had a base in some of these programs, but this has taken my understanding to a whole new level!”
- Nathaniel Andrew Putnam
“Great course!
I've created some decent Access databases in years past but it was mostly self taught through reading and some early YouTube videos. There was much that I didn't know or comprehend that left my databases incomplete or didn't perform the way I wanted. This course explains all of the things I was missing.
Tons of information provided and explained very well. Access is very powerful with so many options, properties, and such that it will take a beginner quite some time to become proficient but this course explains so much, with many examples that reinforce learning. Macros, SQL, and VBA, has been a big mystery for years...for me. The instructor walks you through the basics and now I have a foundation to pursue these topics further without hesitation.
The instructor is pleasant to listen to and is very organized in the information given, both in order and detail.”
- David Keach

The course and included files were well thought out and most functioned as expected. The link tables was extensively used because the links didn't carry through after downloading and put into use. I had to guess about which files to use to follow along with the instuctor most of the time. Maybe a bit of a message at the beginning of each section subject naming what files to follow along with would be helpful. Overall I enjoyed the course very much and look forward to expand on the foundation this provided.

Great course with right pace and insight. I would give it 5 stars if all the example/demo databases were accessible as resources for students.
