I'm forwarding a notice from Michele McGeoy (of A.S.A.P) about ebase training classes offered by A.S.A.P in Berkeley, CA for March and April. Might be of interest to those of you in Northern California. Please contact Oronde Gordon directly (see info below) for more information. Liz Gans Director, ebase Community Support ********************************************************************** Deciding about ebase This class gives you an overview of the program and a chance to review the pros and cons. If you are thinking about using ebase, but have not yet decided, this is the perfect class for you. Come with lots of questions to help you decide if this is the program for you. We will be discussing topics like:"How does it compare to other programs?"; Is it really free?"; Is ebase too complicated?"; "Why not just use Microsoft Access?"; What are some of the strengths and weaknesses?" Date/time: March 21, 2001 10:00am-12:00 Cost: $25 Intro to ebase This class is a great introduction to this easy-to-use software and an effective way to train new staff members to use your existing ebase system. You will learn to: navigate within FileMaker and ebase; enter data and perform searches; produce letters and e-mail messages; monitor fundraising efforts; and review donation histories. Even you've been using ebase, but never formally trained - you will come away some insight about other ways to use the software.
