In this rapidly changing world a good understanding of computer software and how to use it effectively is essential.
We prepare students by teaching them the basic functionality of Microsoft software:
Word - word processing
Excel - spreadsheets and graphs
PowerPoint - presentations
Access - databases
Publisher - compiling
SharePoint - web design

and then spend time showing them how to use the software in a practical way for the business and commercial world.
