Course Outcomes

We've designed our course with two primary learning objectives in mind:

1) We want to our students to internalize good principles of database design
We want to help our students understand the fundamental principles that make up good database design. Databases that are organized, structured, and planned right the first time lead to cleaner, easier to manage, and modular Airtable applications.

and;

2) We want our students to leave with extrordinarily usable skills
We want our students to develop the intermediate/advanced skills they'll need to manage, extend, and improve the bases they build and work with on the daily. We want our students to leave the course comfortable bringing the skills they've learned back to their organizations; implementing their own new ideas with confidence and creativity.

Course Curriculum

Our approach is named The AirOps Advantage.

The AirOps Advantage contains 3 steps:

  1. Database Strategy and Design – The first step allows our client’s internal team and AirOps Consulting to be entirely aligned on the process and what the outcome of the project will look like. The deliverable for this phase is the mockup of your database so the client can know how it will be set up.
  2. Database Implementation – The second step is for the AirOps Consulting consulting team to build the database by configuring fields, setting up automation, and implementing views and interfaces for various team members. The client team and AirOps team will have periodic meetings to communicate on the progress and clarifying questions
  3. Team Training and Support – The third step of our projects is to train the client team on how to use their database. AirOps Consulting can also provide ongoing support to the client through a monthly retainer.
