Release the nerd inside you

Do you need to upgrade your computer skills? Perhaps you want to save yourself (or your company) some training dollars?

The latest training solution offered through the Center for Business Excellence is information technology training provided by the Microsoft® Elevate America program.

This training includes general, self-paced, beginning and intermediate E-Learning online courses in Microsoft Windows and Office, and IT Professional online courses tailored for individuals on a technical professional career track in areas such as web development or database management. To see the entire Microsoft course selection visit https://www.microsoftelearning.com/catalog/default.aspx

To access this training, you must apply for a voucher for each course you wish to take. The application for vouchers is located at http://elevateamerica.floridajobs.org.

Vouchers are available through Aug. 21 or while supplies last. All vouchers must be activated by Aug. 21. Vouchers for general E-Learning and IT courses are good for 12 months after the date of activation.

To determine which courses best suit your needs, you may take an on-line assessment at Microsoft Basic Computer Literacy assessment.
