Default Tracking competencies with Access 2007

I'm trying to create a (I think) simple db to keep track of a list of
employees in different work sections and when they pass several
different competencies. The employees can take the competency tests
several time and will have to pass it yearly.
I created a list of: employees, work sections and competencies, but
can't figure out the relationships. Does anyone have a template that
might accomplish this small feat?

You need the following tables:

TblSection
SectionID
Section

TblEmployee
EmployeeID
FName
LName
SectionID
etc

TblCompetency
CompetencyID
Competency

TblEmployeeCompetency
EmployeeCompetencyID
EmployeeID
CompetencyID
DateTested
Passed (Yes/No)

Join all "ID" fields to the same "ID" field in the appropriate table.

John,

Your application looks both simple and specialized to you.

Posing it as a "template" question is probably the wrong route.
