Training Modules

There are three lessons in the Introduction to Relational Database course. Each lesson will consist of several individual topics with two links - one link will open a Microsoft Word document with a detailed step-by-step tutorial, and the other link will play a video with a live demonstration of each step. You might consider printing a copy of the tutorial to view while watching the video, and before you practice directly in FileMaker Pro.

Your main objective will be to perform the steps in FileMaker Pro once you have read the training manual and watched the videos. Upon completing all three lessons, you will be submitting your final database file to Lt. Col. Lee Taylor with the Civil Air Patrol. Details on this project are provided in the Assessments link.

Lesson 1:  Defining relational databases and terminology in order to understand the concepts prior to creating the database.

Lesson 2:  Creating a relational database in FileMaker Pro.

Lesson 3: Managing Input in the FileMaker Pro database.
