Europe

Every 1st Wednesday of the month at 6:00 pm UK Time

Welcome to the Europe Access User Group

This virtual group meets on the first Wednesday of each month, from 18:00 – 19:30 UK Time and will be led by Colin Riddington. We provide a forum for IT pros, developers, and new users to share and learn about Microsoft Access.

The group will focus on innovative and lesser known features in Access with an invited speaker discussing a topic relevant to Access developers for the first 45 minutes of the session. The remaining time used to answer questions, share ideas and suggest topics for future sessions.

About Us

Each session will be recorded and uploaded to the AUG channel on YouTube at a later date
