Course Introduction

Computers are part of everyday study, work, and communication. Many learners in college begin with different levels of experience, and some may be starting for the first time. This handbook is written for students who are new to computers and for those who want to strengthen their basic skills. The lessons begin with simple actions such as using the mouse and keyboard, then move toward practical tasks in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, as well as email, file management, and safe internet use. The language is simple and friendly so that students who use English as a second language can follow easily. The learning experience is hands-on. Each session includes short explanations followed by guided practice. Examples and exercises reflect common needs in school and office settings. By the end of the course, students will complete a final project that brings together all key skills.

Training Approach

The course follows a clear path from foundation to application. Students first build confidence with the operating system and file management. Next, they learn how to create and format documents, organize data and make simple calculations, and prepare clear presentations. The later sessions focus on everyday office tasks such as completing online forms, managing email with attachments, saving as PDF, printing and scanning, and combining work across different applications.
