Course Details:
This essential course for anyone who has a computer, explores the history of desktop publishing and looks at its various possibilities and impossibilities.
The industry standard was created by Macintosh but it was not long before the PC, chiefly through the efforts of IBM, quickly began to catch-up with the result that today it is safe to say that all computers can be used in a most professional way to cope with a vast range of desktop publishing assignments.
An essential important part of the course is an examination of desktop publishing software while various typefaces are discussed - Serif and San Serif.
The course then gets down to the actual mechanics of getting started in desktop publishing covering such aspects as writing and design graphics.
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.'
