Your guide to my job
How to get in touch.
As I'm not always near a phone, email works best.
Things I can help with
The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) qualification
This is a newish qualification that raises your competence in dealing with IT - it's widely recognized in the EEC and elsewhere. We are delivering this course with the aid of CD-ROM based training sessions at Newton Park.
Here's a link to my page on the European Computer Driving Licence
If you've already gained a CLAIT qualification in, say, word processing, you'll find you're able to pass the ECDL test covering the same field (with a little preparation).
Workshops
I provide workshops on various topics to do with IT.

'Help' for these IT Help Pages
This resource is for you - staff and students at Bath Spa University - much of the content is prompted by suggestions from individuals. If you've something you'd like to see added please get in touch.

- Windows and Apple machines
- While much of this resource is quite specific to Microsoft 'Windows', mice, etc, some is useful if you're using an Apple machine - e.g. the Apple equivalent of the Windows 'Right mouse click'.
If you're considering buying a pc for home use, it's well worth considering a pc from Apple at present - moving documents between Apple pcs and Windows machines is painless, they have security advantages, and you'll find the learning curve isn't steep.
