To take a look back on this course and its overall impact it had I would have to say that it was very interesting and informative. This being my first time actually using Microsoft Access it was an interesting journey through these past eight weeks but it was a good interesting. The majority of databases I’ve dealt with have been Microsoft Excel in these last few years, they have been in areas of troop rosters and scheduling to training and other qualifications but besides that nothing in the lines of Access. After working with this program I do find it being very resourceful with its capabilities that it provides in the means of its information distribution especially over other programs that can be pulled in by copying their projects and tables actually into Access. I feel having the knowledge of using Access can be a huge resource for any company looking for a records manager which are most companies and from using Access these last few weeks I’ve found that the limits are endless with what can be done inside this program.
After taking this class and looking ahead on how it may affect my future careers in what I’m studying for I would see it being valuable to have the knowledge of using again amongst any company but looking towards what I might be leaning towards more in a networking aspect and hardware I’m not too sure where I might use it in the future. Now this is why I hate answering questions like this because I’ve got my interests and so does everyone else and mine aren’t in the path of coding and other things that relate but again it’s great knowledge to have especially when working with a company. Again that’s why I don’t like answering these types of questions because I look at these classes and ask myself is this what you’re interested in? Majority of the
