We need a good 80 GB IDE Hard Disk to replace one that is dying and 8 sticks of 1GB DDR-266 RAM to update four of our lab PCs so that they can run the Windows 7 we bought for them. If you have these, ship them to Adult Life Training, 3301 E Coliseum Blvd, Fort Wayne, IN 46805. If you do not have the parts but want to help, click the pay pal button at left or mail your check to the same address. The RAM will cost us $264 and the hard disk will cost about $50 (both + transportation in) to buy.

Free Job Skills Training

We know that change is inevitable. A person can work faithfully for 35 years in a factory, have it close unexpectedly, and be suddenly unemployed with no retirement income. A person cannot even apply for a job many times unless he or she uses a computer to do so. So you are a mature worker and unemployed: how do you get computer job skills?

Adult Life Training, Inc. provides free computer job skills training. Everyone is welcome. We help people re-enter the workforce by teaching them the basic computer job skills required for most jobs. We have a formal curriculum and enrollment. Since January 2004 we have provided instruction to many hundreds of students, many who worked in a factory all their lives and have never used a computer before. We teach using BOTH the new Linux and Windows, Microsoft Office 2007 and Sun Open Office, Internet searches and browsing including job searches, e-mail, and instant messaging with Microsoft Internet Explorer, the wildly popular FireFox, and the new Google Chrome browsers. This trains our students in ALL the most popular office software suites, so that their resumes can truthfully show they are job-ready.

Computer Job Skills are easy to learn if you have a patient, knowledgeable instructor. You too can live with dignity and purpose. Hundreds of people can agree: they know more now than they ever thought they could learn. We can help you too. Come to the Beginners' class 9:00 AM Monday to get started.

 Use OpenOffice.org OpenOffice is available to everyone, in every nation, every language, every organization and business, FOR FREE, from http://www.OpenOffice.org. Click the picture for the free download. It works with Microsoft Windows (7, Vista, XP, and more), Apple OS/X, and a host of Unix and Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, EdUbuntu (special edition for K-12 schools and teachers), Debian, CentOS, Red Hat, Fedora, Novel SuSE, and Mandrake (Mandriva), most of which are also free. There is very little re-training involved in a business switching to OpenOffice, and no hassles with software licensing, record keeping, or infringement law suites.
