PerfectIT training & services is all about helping people become comfortable with basic computer skills, learning new programs, functions and building confidence within the IT world.
Computers can appear scary for people who have not used them before. The benefit of learning how to use a computer is endless; you may even discover a new hobby. The internet in particular opens up new opportunities. Cooking becomes more fun with new recipes online. Social networking allows you to stay in touch with friends and family. Knowing how to use a computer can open up new worlds to users.
Would you like some training in certain software packages, including email? Do you need help with the basic function; turning a computer on and off, starting and closing programs and finding help if needed? Have you learnt these basic skills and need a refresher? Do you own a camera and have no idea how to transfer your photos to your computer? Would you like some training in photo editing, resume writing, creating flyers or invitations?
“Basic Computer Skills Training” commences at the Tambellup Community Resource Centre in March, Limited places are available please put your name down at the CRC ASAP
*Expression of interest in training would be wonderful.* Enquire at the CRC or email me.
I look forward to seeing you perfectIT. No matter how small, training has the potential to impact you in a big way. The Butterfly Effect.
