I am reminded of database courses I completed at NCU. I learned a lot.
I learned about data mining, OLAP, knowledge management, and data protection/loss.
For the database administration and management course, MIS 7002, I needed to prepare a signature assignment. It required me to prepare a 12-page organizational intelligence policy. I was proud of this assignment.
There was a paper on the knowledge and skills needed for specific database positions (by different database professionals or people who work with databases). I need to think about these issues for my situation.
One of the papers I prepared during the course was similar to a document I prepared on an audit project at Grant Thornton. I pulled together the federal and state regulations/rules, standards, and policies that pertain to data protection.
There was a presentation on data mining (https://youtu.be/H4crCeJegGY). I recall that I used my background to select data mining examples. Under-the-hood information on this assignment (in the course blog) reminded me that I prepared it in the computer lab for residents of my Gainesville apartment community (http://fmooredbadminmngtsiga.blogspot.com/2016/10/assignment-submitted.html). Posts and pictures in the blog bring back a lot of memories. I recall the cover photo / header picture that I designed for my social media accounts. My photos of a small cathedral-like church in Gainesville are shown. I stopped taking food to the lab.

I prepared a presentation on an example of failed decision-making at Amazon.
