Training

Most corporations spend more time and money on new computer systems rather than training their people on how to use what they already have.

Proper training can propel an unproductive employee into a power computer user who can learn to multiply their efforts by efficiently using the computer and their time.

Imagine if everyone at your office really knew how to effectively use the computer!

Generally the speed at which the user learns, is dependent on the aptitude of the user.   Though we cannot perform magic, we make every effort to relate the computer skills with the computer user, helping to expose the talents of each individual in a way that will make them more productive.

Our goal is to minimize the struggle and the learning curve that people go through when learning how to use a computer.  This is a task that is accomplished with our "person to person training."

All training is done in person and on site.

Customized Training

Customized training is available for software applications that are proprietary to companies.  Normally, a fee is required to learn the program and develop a course to teach individuals about the software.  The advantage to the users is a complete and thorough understanding of computers and the Windows environment in addition to the proprietary application.

So, enough talking, teach!
