Is Learning Microsoft Access So Much Worth It? by LOSKYXANDER(op): 12:19pm On Sep 17, 2018
I have a BSC in Geology currently serving and I have skill knowledge in Microsoft word, power point and Excell. I am completely new to Microsoft Access. I made enquiries at a computer training centre in the state where I am serving about Microsoft Access training. I was charged 15k for one month. For a corper this can be expensive judging from how much our alawee is. Please I need professional advice about Microsoft Access. Do I really need it since I already know Excell? What exactly are the prospects with Access? Thanks

I am also faced with a similar situation. I heard Access is used for database management but I don't know how necessary it is to learn it if you are not into IT, programming and stuffs like that. God bless OP for creating this thread. Mods make una carry better thing go front page

Thanks, but I don't have so much interests in Engineering designs though.

Me wondering why many people read enquiry threads and walk away without saying anything

Lol. How badass are you with Ms word, powerpoint and excel?

Buy a beginner to advanced course for these three packages and really master them.

Forget Access. Learn how to kick ass with excel, stuffs like vlookup, hlookup, pivot, VBA and every other basic to advanced formula. It will stand you out when you start jobhunting and even when you start working.

With all my years using excel, I am still a novice. 'Go practice first.
