Course Details:
This course is primarily for those of us who are petrified by computers, mystified by the technical jargon that seems so much like gobbledygook. So basically the course provides such people with an understanding of how to purchase and use a Personal Computer. No prior knowledge of computers is required.
Specific subjects covered in the course include:
Buying a computer.
Windows Software.
Desktop publishing.
Creating personalised stationery.
Email and the Internet.
Downloading.
Basic web surfing and Chat Rooms.
Management/Leadership Skills Test
All students of this course have the option to take a Management/Leadership Test for an additional cost of €35.00. This test is conducted on our behalf by Verax international. This test has to be taken on line and the results will be sent directly to each student by email usually within 3/ 4 working days.
The test will allow you to assess your own performance against 16 key management/leader competencies - such as customer focus, decision making, creativity and team working - which are valued by employers and which are very important for effective performance as a manager or team leader. There is one test for managers in the public sector and a separate test for all other managers. Depending on which version chosen, your performance is benchmarked either against 15,000 or so managers in the database or against public sector managers only.
In summary, this unique test will show you what to stop doing (or do less of) and what to start doing (or do more of) in order to become more effective in your current role/activity. In effect, you are told what you need to do to become a more effective manager and team leader and most important of all, how to do it.'
