The early stages of learning to use new technology can feel a bit like baptism by fire. While IDEA is easy to use, there is a natural learning curve that requires time, effort and patience. Presenter Russ Chidester will share his journey as a newly-hired auditor with extensive experience using spreadsheets, yet limited experience using databases, and how he evolved into a proficient IDEA user. He will inspire new users to overcome their fear of databases by inviting the audience to relive some of his own experiences.
