In this course, you will learn how to use to manage your data, including creating a new database; constructing tables; designing forms and reports; and creating queries to join, filter, and sort data. Features and functions in Office 365 and Office 2019 / 2016 / 2013 are nearly identical. For this reason, users for all versions (365, 2019, 2016 and 2013) attend the same class. The instructor will explain the few visual differences in the versions to you; just let the instructor know what version you are using.
