Personal Reflection: Problem Solving in the Workplace

It is important for students to understand how their curriculum is applied to real world workplace environments. How what you are studying can or will benefit you in your current, or future, career. For this assignment, you will need to review your program’s curriculum and goals and compare that to your current job/internship (if unemployed, reflect on a job/career that you desire to obtain in the future). To complete the assignment, please follow the below instructions:

1. Reflect on (research, if needed) your current (or future) job duties and responsibilities.

Assignment Details:Part 1 – Identify a Problem

• Problem solving starts by being able to identify existing problems, gaps in service, inefficient systems/processes, flawed policies, or any other areas of our job/career where improvement is needed. Identify a problem or gap at your workplace and explain why/how this problem exists.

Part 2 – Solve the Problem

• Use your knowledge that you’ve learned in the program (or hope to learn in a future course) to implement a plan to solve the problem.

Last week’s working group meeting on encryption has carried over to discussions on securing the network connections between the PCS corporate office and satellite offices.

Consider the network risks that may be discovered during the assessment phase of RMF. Assessments can be time consuming. Propose an automated tool that may be used to identify some of these risks. Additionally, discuss some of the devices that can add security protection for the network links between the corporate and satellite offices. Include at least one research reference and associated in-text citation using APA standards. In your replies to your peers further discussing the importance of network security devices.

GO19_AC_CH01_GRADER_1G_HW – College Construction 1.0

Project Description:

In this project, you will create database objects to track the construction projects and the events related to the projects at a college. You will create a table and import data from Excel to create a second table. You will use a database template to enter data into the Events table. You will create a simple query, a form, and a report.

#Start Access. Open the file Student_Access_1G_College_Construction_HW.accdb downloaded with   this project. Close the Event List multiple-items form that automatically   opened. Open the Navigation Pane.

#In   Datasheet view, create a new table. Beginning in the second column of the   table and using the data type of Short Text, create the Building Project, Site,   and Contractor fields (in that order). In the fifth   column, using the Currency data type, create the Budget Amount   field.

#Change   the data type of the ID field to Short Text, rename the ID field to Project ID and change the Field Size to 5

Starting   in the Project ID field, add the following three records to the new table:

P-356

Student Center,     3-story

Northeast Campus

RR Construction

61450000

P-823

Student Center,     2-story

Southeast Campus

RR Construction

41960000

P-157

Health Professions     Center

Northwest Campus

Marshall Ellis     Construction

42630000

Save   the table as 1G Projects, and then close the table.

Append   the records from the downloaded Excel file a01G_Projects.xlsx to the 1G Projects table.

In   the Navigation Pane, organize the objects by Tables and Related Views. Open   the 1G Projects table (the table has eight records). Close the Navigation Pane.

#Switch   the 1G Projects table to Design view. For the Project ID field, enter a   description of Enter the Project ID   using the format P-### For the Site field, enter a description of Campus Location.   Save the table.

#Switch   to Datasheet view, apply Best Fit to all of the fields in the table, save the   table, and then close the table.

#Import   the records from the downloaded Excel file   a01G_Contractors.xlsx into the database as a new table named 1G Contractors. Designate the first row as column   headings and the CO ID field as the primary key.

#Open   the 1G Contractors table in Datasheet view (the table has four records).   Apply Best Fit to all of the fields in the table, save the table, and then   close the table.

#Based on your 1G Projects table, use the Query Wizard to create a simple   query. Add the Site, Building Project, and Budget Amount fields (in that   order). Keep the default name of 1G   Projects Query, click Finish to display the query results, and then close   the query.

#Based   on your 1G Projects table, use the Form tool to create a form for the table.   Save the form as 1G Project Form, display the form in Form view, and   then close the form.

#Based   on your 1G Projects table, use the Report tool to create a report. Delete the   Budget Amount field from the report. Save the report as 1G Projects Report.

#Sort   the Building Project field in ascending order. Set the width of the Building   Project, Site, and Contractor fields to 2 inches. Delete the page number from   the report, save the report, and then close the report.
