There are a few places remaining on an exciting introductory and digital media friendly course on how to use your computer and the internet (in the home ) will be run at GMIT after Easter.
This new and improved computers for beginners course will start on Monday April 19 at 7pm or Wednesday April 21 at 7pm . The lecturer and course director is Dr Robert J Loughnane who has specially prepared this course for those people who have little or no previous knowledge of digital media or the internet.
This new course will introduce the course participants to all aspects of digital media (digital camera, memory card readers, picture/photo editing as well as transferring a video to an ipod ). Due to the high demand for this course Dr Loughnane is encouraging people to book early to avoid disappointment.
What makes this Easter beginners course unique is that Dr Loughnane will show participants how to use Skype as well as how to transfer/backup their files onto both a memory stick and external hard drive. The importance of backing up files will be explained in detail.
The course will run over six weeks each Monday or Wednesday (7pm to 10pm ) and the cost of the course is €150 per person . We are limiting places on both evenings so book early to avoid disappointment.
