Greetings

 

Three Computers in Homes computers are now housed at Buller REAP on Palmerston Street, Westport.  Thank you to Buller REAP for making the space available.  The computers have been connected to the internet via wifi and are now fully functional.

 

Rejuvenations have continued and are mostly up to date.  Computers have been checked over and on line surveys have been completed as those people who have had their computers for a year take over the responsibility for their machines now that the machine's warranty period is over.

There have been a few calls from people who have had minor issues with their computers.  It is great to help with these issues and it is always enjoyable to meet up again.

Kiwi Skills
Kiwi Skills is an on line computer training programme.  There is an Assessment Tool available with it to assess where the gaps in learning are, before deciding what training to undertake.  Recently the Kiwi Skills Assessment Tool was offered free for those who applied before the end of September.  I visited as many organisations as possible around Westport to let them know of this opportunity.  I hope I reached anyone who would find this to be of use to their organisation. 

I hope you and your families are enjoying your computers.  Don't forget to get in touch if you are keen to continue with your computer training and wish to start the Stepping Up programme.

Cheers
Denise
