Important Note about Microsoft Access Versions
Versions 365, 2019 and 2016 are very similar from the user's perspective. The difference is mostly a matter of how you're accessing the software. Microsoft Access 365 is accessed via the cloud. You pay a monthly subscription to use the software. Since it's not static on your device, you'll get updates to the software when they happen. On the otherhand, 2019 / 2016 and earlier PC versions are purchased outright and installed directly onto your computer (aka "on-premise").
Access features and functions are the same no matter which version you're using, and as such students with any of those versions can attend the same training.
