I started a uni degree with the main objective to develop good data bases for my workplace. I wish I had discovered this site earlier. It is much more in-depth than the 12 week unit that covers data base design. I am very excited about the data base I am now designing and can't wait to finish it and show it to my boss, I know that she will be blown away when she realizes the amount of man hours that I will have eliminated with this data base.

I am a 51 year old Australian woman who never finished high school. Four years ago I enrolled in an online Information Technology Degree at University while working full time as an office manager. It was hard and I stuck it out for 2 years, only to realise it was never really going teach me what I wanted to do...data bases. I didn't want to pull computers apart and put them together or become a statistical analyst. Wallowing in self pity and feeling like a failure, I decided to take a different path and started searching youtube for tutorials when I came across AccessLearningZone.com. I have now created one very simple data base that is used at work everyday and now I am working on another more complex one that I am very excited about, all because of Richard's tutorials.

I think I will get a very fat bonus this year when the boss sees the data base that I am designing thanks to your tutorials. Thank you Access Learning Zone and thank you Richard Rost.
