GCCOA Seeks IT Help

Received from Karen Puterbaugh on January 3, 2010:

Happy New Year to All!

Your Greene County Council on Aging is looking forward to a great year and we thank you for your partnership and support.

I am sending this out to a cross-section of our e-mail friends asking for your help. We are in need of a local IT professional who has the skills and flexibility to meet our needs. We hope to find an individual with whom we can contract for the needed hours each week or month. Our office and IT operation is small, but our work and impact are great.

If you know of someone who might be a good fit with the Council and meets the following requirement, please share this e-mail and invite them to contact me at karen@gccoa.org .

Highly proficient Microsoft Access 2007 database developer; skills should include designing customized queries, forms and reports as well as troubleshooting Microsoft Access issues in a multi-user environment; some VBA programming would be helpful, but not required; if no VBA programming experience, then the ability to use macros to automate processes is a must; this person should also have a good working knowledge of ODBC and linking/importing tables from other data sources, including SQL.

I appreciate your assistance with our request.

Thank you – Karen
