Week 3 Create a Database Assignment

Sample: Create a Database Assignment

Illinois has just passed a mandatory continuing education requirement for registered nurses. As the head of the nursing education department, I am interested in establishing a database for nurses employed at our institution related to their participation in continuing education.

We offer numerous programs in the traditional classroom mode at the University. We also have recently started to offer courses via our University Intranet. Nurses also take courses outside the University.

Note: In the future, it might be possible to merge the University Classroom, University Intranet, and Other into one field each for the field names of certification numbers, dates, and CEU’s .

For classroom sessions, nurses would register on-line and receive their certificates on-line. This data would automatically be entered into the data base. Then the nursing education department would only have to manually enter the outside programs. If this was the case, and the department was interested in whether or not the program was classroom, Intranet, or other, a new field could be created.
