Computing With Confidence
Computer Training
Working at your own pacein a small group
Looking for a beginner's course? Or a course to improve your computer skills? I offer short computer courses for beginners and more experienced users. Do you want to feel confident when you use your computer, without asking for help? Do you feel left behind in the modern world when everything is done on-line? Or do you want to develop your skills?
A computer course will give you confidence. These courses allow you to work at your own pace and with my support when you need it. Sessions are flexible, allowing you to come when it suits you.
Courses are offered using Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Office 2003 or Microsoft Windows 7 with OpenOffice. OpenOffice looks like Microsoft Office 2003 and is given to you free.
I am a qualified computer trainer and I have experience in training adults in business and in education over many years. I have designed the courses to suit people who need clear explanations and lots of practice to build up their new skills.
I have also written the books to go with the courses. I could not find any books that do not assume some knowledge of computer jargon and which give learners plenty of practice. So I wrote my own. I think my manuals provide what people need - many learners have now used these books and agree they meet their needs.
