Small Spark -- Friendly IT Training                           Contact Point

Our training covers what you need or want to know, that’s the beauty of tailored training. You can create your own session from our Application-Based or Task-Based training topics. If you don’t see what you’re looking for here then just ask – if we can’t help you, we might know someone who can.

Task-Based

Individual Tasks

We can offer you assistance on the IT skills that will help you with a given task.

An example might be using the mail merge and envelope printing features in Word to send a mailing letter to a list of contacts which are stored in a spreadsheet or database.

Or using Acrobat, CutePDF or the other alternatives to create PDF files that anyone can read regardless of the software they have.

Business Processes

We can help you streamline your business processes.

A company-wide view of information – how it flows and what it is used for – will help you to make your office work more efficiently.

Doesn’t it annoy you when you’ve told the bank that your address has changed but they haven’t updated all their databases? Don't do the same thing to your customers.

Non-Business Use

IT isn’t just for businesses, there are plenty of uses at home too.

We can help you:

  • Look for employment
  • Learn how to better plan and manage your budget
  • See how the internet works
  • Shop online – safely
  • Help the children with their school projects
  • Make sure the children use the internet safely
  • Communicate with your family via email
  • And much more…
