Web sites – Web Training
Training in your office
We offer training in a number of areas:
- Web site updating
- Image editing
- Site Management
We are happy to assist clients with their updating requirements, or if they prefer we can train members of their team to update the site in-house. Where staff availability permits e.g. for larger organisations, it may make financial sense to bring updating in-house.
Training in other areas including computer skills and desktop publishing can also be arranged via recommended partners. Please enquire for details.
