They have many computer and > internet courses. You can try out the free ones and decide if you want to > purchase any. > "I am very pleased with the Ziff-Davis training site. This is an > excellent resource and I think may be used quite a bit." > > There is a London site - http://www.freeskills.co.uk which claims it > offers more free training than any site on the web. You have to agree to > allow a cookie on your machine before using. They cover the MS Office > products, UNIX, Corel, Lotus, Macintosh, > Novell programming, Internet, Visio, DTP, ACT and QuarkExpress. You > need an Acrobat reader to view the training, which they offer free. The > courses may be slow on a standard modem. > "The London site may have a lot of information to provide, however, > it was not really a training site, but more of a resource to learn more by > reading about topics. It doesn't provide any assignments and hands-on > tasks. But I think it can still be helpful. " > > Another site - http://www.pcshowandtell.com requires the download > of a player they warn is " high risk". I have not tried this one. > "This site is not really a training site at all, but a knowledge > repository of frequently asked questions. Again, it may be helpful." > > Soffie ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
