National Conferences

Project Description: 
Your company handles room registration, speaker coordination, and other functions for national conferences that are held at your campus throughout the year. The sales department mails schedules to speakers and building coordinators. The speaker database was modified by unauthorized personnel, and some of the changes need to be reversed. For example, all of the relationships were deleted; they need to be recreated. You have been asked to analyze the database, fix the relationships, and make the database more secure to avoid this situation in the future. The database tables may already be normalized; however, you need to examine the tables to verify this.
