Help is at hand

From time to time, as the leader of our computer group, I am asked if we can provide tuition to members new to computing. Unfortunately, we cannot do so, as we do not have access to computers at our regular fortnightly meetings. To be able to obtain any benefits from being one of the group it is necessary to have at least a basic knowledge of the subject.

However, all is not lost. There are several places in our area where help can be found. One of these is Weston College at Worle, located at 167 High Street opposite Summerfields supermarket)

They provide free three levels of training, the first being City and Guils Course No, 4248 aimed at beginners. There is no actual class, but participants follow the workbooks provided at their own workstation. The course takes 30 hours ( 4 hours a week). We have had very good reports from several people who have taken advantage of the facilities offered.

Having mastered the basics, two further courses are available. Information can be obtained by ringing 01934 411715.
