While training is actually one of my favorite things to do, it isn’t always a practical thing to do.

Getting a group of people together at the same time in the right frame of mind to improve their computer skills is somewhat like herding cats!

Spending 3-4 hours one-on-one to learn the basics of a new software isn’t cost-effective.

So I have found an option!  Use the training videos to get the BIG picture on the capabilities of a software. Then contact YCL for the fine-tuning.

For a small monthly fee (as low as $25!), you can register with Lynda.com to watch

  • all of the training videos you want
  • on a wide, wide range of topics
  • short, focused videos on a topic that you control your time
  • groups of progressive videos on a software, i.e., Microsoft Word 20?? Essentials

Watch the videos in order or skip around to get just the techniques you need. Watch a video twice to get a complicated sequence down perfectly. Watch for as long as you want. Most of the videos are short segments. So you don’t have to devote 2 hours or half a day to learning. Take a 15 minute lunch break and polish up your computer skills!

Look at the range of topics:

Microsoft Excel ACT! Photography InDesign
Creating Animated Characters AutoCAD Audio for Film & Video Remixing a Song
Switching to MAC Building Professional Connections LinkedIn Google Calendar
Email Marketing Strategies Time Management Google + EverNote

 

Go to the Lynda.com site to browse the course offerings. I guarantee there is something there you will be interested in!

I am certainly available to do personal training if you prefer one-on-one sessions. Or to do small group training to implement company procedures. Just give me a call to discuss what you need!
