The tools and education around VBA was great, would have loved a little more of an in depth discussion on VBA, though that may be more pertinent in a different course.

This course provided exposure to advanced features of Access and tools for managing the database. While it was a little beyond my experience level at this point, it was very helpful to gain insight and understanding of issues that can arise with databases and how to fix them. I liked the format of the instructor standing in front of the large screen demonstrating how to navigate and use the database, however, I found I needed to enlarge the screen to see the details more easily at times. It is similar to what happens in meetings when a person already familiar with a computer screen displays it for others. If it isn't quite large enough it is difficult to follow along.

Enjoyed this course. Contents were applicable to real world issues. Instructor was slow-paced, as I prefer, and provided thorough explanations.
