Home Schooling for Busy Grown-Ups

Well, learning computer skills in the comfort of your own home has a lot of advantages.

  • You can learn at your own pace
  • You can study at the time of day that works for you
  • You can save time and money over attending outside classes
  • You can wear your pajamas to "class"

Home-based computer training courses come in CD and online forms. CDs are sent to you by postal mail - you put these into your computer's CD drive to load your lessons. Online lessons are accessed over the internet, generally by entering a username and password received during your purchase. If you don't have a decent internet connection, then CDs are a better choice. Otherwise, CDs and online computer lessons offer similar convenience.

The Topic for Your Most Immediate Need is Available

The topics available are such as "Learn Microsoft® Exce®l", "Make Money Using eBay", "Powerpoint Presentations" and a myriad of other current applications. Mastering these courses will enable you to perform better at your current job, gain skills to compete in the job market for a new position, or just give you the satisfaction of being a life-long learner.

Just like in real classrooms, you will learn the latest versions of familiar programs and be offered training in new products as they are released. Unlike a real classroom, you will be able to review lessons directly from the instructor. If you didn't get it the first time around, you can review and try it out for yourself. Then you can proceed with what you need to continue. As you know, when you get lost in a classroom, it's often hard to catch up.
