This request came in from Gisli one of our Technical Advisors at MSFT. I’ve been asked by a collection of UN organizations that handle disaster response around the world if we would be able to provide training material (including recorded webcasts,
Office 2007 Pro, on-line training,
Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus, etc.) that could be used to train information management people in a number of disaster areas around the world. One of the key areas they have identified as a need is to increase the knowledge of these people in the area of administration,
Office 2007 Pro Plus Key, querying,
Office 2007 Ultimate, reporting,
Windows 7 Home Basic, analyzing and programming within Access. As you can imagine during disasters (or complex emergencies such as conflicts) there is a lot of data being collected about the situation on the ground. This data often ends up not getting analyzed properly because of lack of DBA know-how in the field. So if you can point me to some freely available material that we could share with them then that would be much appreciated. We are putting together some stuff but wanted to ask all of you to contribute any resources/links you think might be helpful. Please add the info in the comments so we can all share. <div
