During Spring 2011 we will be offering two intermediate IT courses: Intermediate PowerPoint will help you to improve the design of your PowerPoint presentations and to use many of the PowerPoint features. To get the best out of the workshop you should be able to set up a simple PowerPoint presentation and to move between slides when delivering a presentation.
Intermediate Publisher is for those who would like to be able to create professional looking publications such as posters, flyers and newsletters. The course will be run as a workshop in which you will develop your own publicity materials with advice from the tutors. To get the best out of this workshop you should be able to design a simple publication with text boxes and pictures in Publisher, or be competent in use of Word.
Dates have yet to be set, but for further information and a booking form please contact the CVS on 01707 274861 or email info@whcvs.org.uk

Web Site Design Service
This WHCVS web site is maintained by a volunteer at WHCVS who also maintains the Kaleidoscope and WHEM Group web sites. If you are a member organisation of WHCVS and would benefit from a web site to promote your organisation then our newly launched Web Site Design Service might be for you. Because the service is for charitable and voluntary organisations the price will not be prohibitive and will be subject to discussion. In the first instance please contact WHCVS Manager, Carmen Dillon, on 01707 274861.
