Happy Computers offers free day of IT help to 100 local charities
Howard Lake | 4 April 2006 | News
London-based IT training organisation Happy Computers is offering a free day of help to up to 100 local charities. Instead of providing formal training, staff from the award-winning company, whose mantra is that learning should be fun, will work on helping with general IT issues faced by the charities.
Happy Computers staff will be devoting their day at the selected charities doing whatever is needed. It could be discussing IT strategy, looking at a database deisgned by the charity but which could be made to work better, fixing elements of the web site, or at the work the charity does and providing on-the-job training that will make it more productive.
To apply, simply fill in the online form at Happy Computers’ website. You should indicate what help you think you need. Happy Computers will let you know if it can provide that kind of help and indicate when it might be able to do it. It will keep a list of requests and, when trainers are avalable, book in a day with selected charities.
