Hi Michael,
Thank you for replying.
I'm not sure what you mean by "documenting database systems," but I have
documented database programming procedures.
I am also creating documentation for the inventory control project I'm doing. I
was not asked to do so, but many procedures are involved and I simply began
writing documentation without really being aware of it.
If and when this project is finished, or whenever I "move to the next level," I
intend to present to the people I work with a nicely finished portfolio of
procedures, and ask for references while their eyes are in full boggle mode.
As you mentioned Access, I thought I'd say I intend to take four Access
database courses, earning a certificate in Access Database Management. I intend
to do the same with Oracle, taking two courses to become an Oracle Certified
Associate. Any thoughts on my plans?
Craig
