In the 21st Century, if you haven't heard of the
Internet, you must have been living in a cave since the early
1990s. The Internet has changed not only the way we use computers,
but the way in which business is conducted, and indeed the
way we live our lives.
Since you're reading this Web page, you
obviously have access to the Internet, and you're familiar with the
basic principals of how to browse around on the World Wide Web.
However, in our series of Internet courses, we'll teach you
all of the Ins and Outs of the Web. Plus, we'll show you all
about using Email, online chats, file downloads,
virus protection, and more. We'll show you how to download

web sites. We'll teach you how to upgrade and maintain your
software, right over the Web.
You will learn how to join and read
newsgroups, subscribe to mailing lists, use

in-depth Web design courses under our

We will show you our tips and tricks,
