FileMaker 8 at work - Projects and Techniques

Most books on databases approach the reader with descriptions of how to use tools, and make some reference to putting those tools into a real-world context.

FileMaker 8 @Work: Projects and Techniques to Get the Job Done turns this approach on its ear by introducing key tools in a single chapter, then moves on to what you really want to know - how to use the product to complete the projects that they face at work.

This book provides step-by-step coverage of how to complete a variety of projects that a panel of users has verified as common projects those using the application are asked to complete. Tips, tricks, and notes are provided with the information you need to carry over what you learn on these projects to others you'll undoubtedly be asked to create.

IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) Training

This instructor-led course will provide students with a set of best practices standards for Information Technology (IT) service management. ITIL provides businesses with a customizable framework of best practices to achieve quality service and overcome difficulties associated with the growth of IT systems.

The IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is so named as it originated as a collection of books each covering a specific ‘practice’ within IT management. These books were later consolidated into a number of ’sets’ that group related sets of process guidelines for different aspects of the management of Information Technology systems, applications and services. Taken as a whole, ITIL provides a comprehensive set of guidance that provides management processes linking the technical implementation and operations guidelines recommended by specific equipment or software manufacturers and the strategic management, operations management and financial management of a modern business.

How to Cheat at IT Project Management

Most IT projects fail to deliver, on average, all IT projects run over schedule by 82%, run over cost by 43% and deliver only 52% of the desired functionality.

Pretty dismal statistics. Using the proven methods in this book, every IT project you work on from here on out will have a much higher likelihood of being on time, on budget and higher quality.

This book provides clear, concise, information and hands-on training to give you immediate results. And, the companion Web site provides dozens of templates for managing IT projects. You don't need an advanced degree in project management or a black belt in Six Sigma methodologies to improve your IT project results. What you need is a clear, concise and easy-to-implement system for managing all IT projects.

This book will teach you how to improve your IT project results from start to finish without bogging you down in complex project management jargon or systems. This book provides hands-on training to help you get immediate results.

You can read the book straight through or work through it chapter by chapter--either way, you'll pick up invaluable tools to help you on your next (or current) IT project. From idea to implementation, any IT project you work on will benefit immediately from applying the concepts in this book. If you could increase your project's ROI by 80%, reduce your project's schedule by 20% and increase your project success rate by 35%, wouldn't you do that? These statistics are the average improvements seen after implementing IT project management. This book will assist you in improving every aspect of your IT projects and you'll learn to develop the right size plan for your project-- not a one size fits all approach.
