I want to program access to serve as a courseware program. I want someone to
sit down, click on the start icon and access pop up with the lesson or
briefing item for them to read then to provide a test of knowledge at the end.

It has to be able to display a series of screens with content.
It has to provide a method of providing a series of multiple choice
questions at the
end.
It has to keep a score for each employee and record other data like date
completed.

QUESTION: Can this be done with access or access and powerpoint (in an
intergrated way so that the student doesnt have to go between the two) either
stand alone or with scripting?

I don't think MS access is an ideal choice in this case.

Access is more suited to developing an application which people share data.
You talking more about a lesson building system in which each person's data
is kept separate

A good analogy is to think of what happens when you go to register your
vehicle at the motor vehicles department . Each of the terminal operators
will be able to take information about you and your car. All of those
operators can all access the same data and information about you. You don't
care which operator you go to in the line up.

You now talking about a system in which each individual's data is kept
separate and hidden from each other.

What you're looking for I think is a web based system here, or at least
something different than MS access is strong at.
