How much do you usually pay to enter a race? If it is a 5 km around the park fun run, my bet is that it costs you a whole lot less than if it is a fully blown marathon or longer. But that is all kind of reasonable when you consider what is involved.

Swimming is the hardest of the three triathlon disciplines to master for most of the triathletes I coach. Probably the biggest reason is that swimming is the most “technique dependent” of the disciplines.

Recognising a need for training
As time becomes an increasingly precious commodity, individuals and businesses alike must strive to optimise their efficiency. Being able to effectively organise and retrieve our personal or business-related data is vital. To this end, Microsoft Access was introduced in 1992. Now in its eighth version, this popular relational database management system (RDBMS) essentially allows you, the user, to create and process data in a database. It is therefore possible to identify previously hidden relationships between different types of data and draw important conclusions. Recognising trends can lead to changes in practice and ultimately increased productivity. However, without Microsoft Access training you may be unable to truly experience all that this software has to offer.

It’s dinnertime again at your house, and as you prepare the family dinner, your dog diligently stands nearby, hoping to get a morsel of food that has dropped to the floor…a chopped carrot, a tidbit of barbeque roasted chicken, or maybe even a chocolate chip from those cookies you made in the afternoon. Your dog doesn’t care what it is…as long as it is “people” food, they are happy.

Very few businesses are not ‘run on a computer’ - and by
definition all readers of this article are computer users.
However, how may business people can use their computer and
the relevant software competently? You bought your computer to
increase your efficiency, document quality, financial analysis,
etc. If these goals are not being properly met, then you are at a
disadvantage and it’s possibly even costing you money. In the
extreme it can damage your business. Here are a few examples of
how it can cost:
