QT 100 Data Base Management Techniques 



This course is offered as a self -directed study package; you use 

 your own personal computer and learn at your own pace. It 

 emphasizes information management for fish and wildlife 

 professionals . 



Course materials include a fully operational data base management 

 and reporting system called QUICKTEXT packaged with a complete 

 user's manual and sample data bases. QUICKTEXT was chosen because 

 it is specifically designed to handle information characteristic 

 of resource management activities, that is, information having a 

 high probability to change either in substance or organization. 

 For the person new to data base management, the course will be 

 valuable regardless of what data base management system might be 

 used. Users of other data base management systems will find 

 QUICKTEXT 's ability to handle non-routine tasks a refreshing change 

 from the rigidly-structured applications most other systems 

 require. Users of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's MANAGE, a 

 mainframe data base management system, are already familiar with 

 the concepts, terms and data structures used in QUICKTEXT. These 

 users will also learn how to move data bases between mainframes and 

 personal computers. If interest arises, an 8-hour, 1-day course 

 will be offered to address specific applications. 



The course is offered for a wide variety of personal and 

 professional computers using PC-DOS or MS-DOS. It requires 128K 

 of memory and at least two floppy disk drives. Tuition: $50.
