Here’s what our students are saying…
“The content and delivery of the course was excellent. For a beginner this gives a very extensive insight into the tool.”
- Suresh Narasimhan
“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
“It was really such a great course with step by step approach towards building the required skills and learning of Microsoft Project 2016.
The course is very detailed and the tutor made it very easy to follow and learn using all elements of Audio/Visual tools to the extent that makes it as if it is an in-class course not online.
I was able to follow closely with each and every section successfully and attentively.
Highly recommended!”
