Quaytech have put together a self-study package ideally suited to the busy work schedules and smaller training budgets of employees in the voluntary sector.

The full package costs £199 and is inclusive of all materials, tests and remote tutor support.

The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) is a formal IT qualification widely recognised by employers throughout Europe. The qualification is ideal for those with minimal computer skills seeking to reach an acceptable level of IT competence.

ECDL has been widely adopted by many UK employers and is often regarded as a means of benchmarking computer skills throughout an organisation.

The IT training suites at Nisus Scotland are available for hire from £200 for half a day. Rooms are fully equipped with 10 –12 computers, all of which have flat screen monitors, CD ROM, floppy disc drives and high-speed Internet connections.

The full MS Office 2000 suite is installed on every machine.

We can also provide facilities for trainer presentations including a laptop, projector and projector screen.

If required, there is additional desk space available within the training area where a group can gather for discussion or paper-based training activities.

Included in the room hire package, we offer light refreshments and a coffee lounge area where delegates can relax during course breaks.
