Basic Computer Skills

The keys to your future

Is your career moving way too slow?

If your computer skills aren’t keeping up with the demands of work, school or, even, your social circles, you’re probably experiencing a few speedbumps whenever you try to move ahead. 

Forget coffee, today’s world runs on computer technology. There’s a colossal amount of data (one billion bytes in each gigabyte!) and tools available to help you search the internet, create online documents and access helpful apps.  

And when it comes to the workplace, any workplace, a lack of computer skills is not something to be ignored

Ask the casher at your grocery store, the manager at the bank or the librarian behind that reference desk, the computer is their friend.

Wouldn’t you like to make it yours as well?
