Computer Training for Education and Business Applications
(Meru, Kenya)
Microsoft
consultants from Seattle and New York presented technology training sessions
at Thiiri Center. These included Basic Computer Skills for Women’s
Entrepreneurship (June 29-30, 2007) and Business and Educational Applications
of Technology (July 2-3, 2007).
Local small business owners, teachers and school administrators, and members of women’s entrepreneurship groups attended the sessions, which included basic instruction and hands-on practice with computers in the center. Some had never used a computer before this, but everyone was enthusiastic and committed to learning. Practical business and educational applications were included in the advanced sessions.
Our special thanks to Iris Lemmer, James Lemmer and Craig Phillips for volunteering to share their experience and knowledge in dynamic presentations and collaboration with these groups.
