I am writing to advise you of some workshops which have been arranged in both Word and Excel for non-teaching staff in Catholic schools. This will assist non-teaching staff to better fulfil the day to day operations of their role in schools.

Set out below are the scheduled dates available including a brief outline of Course content.  Members of the Human Resources Team are continuing to work with trainers from Academy IT to specialise training to meet needs identified by users and training will focus on formatting, data extraction, mail merging and other key areas such as how to use online help more effectively.

Customised training will also be made available towards the end of this year or early in 2015 in the Riverland and Port Pirie areas, details, locations and costs are still currently being negotiated. 

The training being offered is in customised Word and Excel and will consist of a total of 3½ hours, which will include a general knowledge of the key areas identified below in Word and Excel.  Classes will be limited to 12 attendees per session.  Costs have been kept to a minimum and are only $100.00 per person.  Participants will only need to attend one 3½ hour session.  Some sessions are being offered once in the morning (9am start) and again later that day (1pm start)and are identified below, the 19^thand 26^th August will only have one session.
