Quality Computer Training in a Relaxed Setting in the Scottish Borders |
This
is a five day 'relax and learn' course designed for those who can already use a
computer, perhaps have, or are looking to buy, a scanner or digital camera, and
would like to be able to capture pictures using these tools, edit them
efficiently and then use them when developing printed publications or Microsoft
Powerpoint presentations. The course is modular so participants may attend those
days which are of most value to them. The content for each day is
outlined below.
The course typically runs from Tuesday to Saturday, residential participants arriving in time for dinner on the Monday evening and daparting some time on Saturday afternoon.
