Computer Training

Computers have brought about a revolution across all industries in Atlanta and globally. They have changed the face of society and are no longer specialized tools to be used by specially trained  people. Computers are ubiquitous and used in almost every sphere of life. With the assistance of the Atlanta Workforce Development Agency (AWDA) Computer Training classes, Atlanta residents gain knowledge of basic concepts related to computer operations. AWDA believes that learning about computer basics followed by a practical experience of using a computer is the key to computer education.  Computer knowledge coupled with certain other job skills increases one's chances of getting a job. Therefore, AWDA helps to ensure that participants are prepared for variety of work environments involving computer applications.
