Microsoft Office Training Courses

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

I have been signed up at work on some Microsoft Office training courses. They train up all of their staff on the packages that they use such as Word, Excel and Publisher. I have done none of these courses yet because I have only just started there and I think it will be really good to get some official certificates in these things.

I think that I am pretty experienced at Word and Excel but I am sure that I will learn more from the microsoft word and Microsoft Excel traiinng that I have been signed up for and the qualifications will be a useful addition to my CV. The other members of my department have been signed up as well and so I expect that there will be quite a bit of competition between us as to who does the best, does the most courses, passes them the quickest and ends up with the most certificates. I think it will be a good motivator for all of us. I am sure work will benefit form us all having these qualifications too as we should all gain more knowledge of these packages than we have already and therefore be able to work more efficiently.

Fun and Computer Training

Friday, July 3rd, 2009

I am having great fun at the moment doing some computer classes. I have not done any training for ages and I had forgotten how good it felt to learn new things. Work have sent me on this course and it is even better than I expected because not only am I learning interesting things but I am also out of the office for a week, which is always great as well as staying away in a hotel. I had no idea that computer training could be so good.

I have decided that I will put my name forward for every course that is going from now on, so that I get lots of opportunities to have fun away from the office! I will have to justify it to my boss of course, but I am sure I can come up with some good reasons for doing various things. It will be really great for my career progression as well which is always a bonus and in this economic climate, you never know what might happen so it is always wise to be very well prepared. I do not think our company is in any trouble and there are no signs of redundancy at present but with so many of my friends losing their jobs, it does make me worry a bit about mine.

Recruiting Processes

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

Recruitment process is not so easy, for big companies. Large companies generally require recruitments in 100’s or 1000’s. In such situations companies depend on staffing agencies for getting professionals. They won’t waste time in scheduling requirement events like resume taking, resume sorting and finally interview conducting. When companies opt for virtual staffing agencies, these agencies will provide them virtual job seekers database.

This database consists of job seekers, their profiles and work experiences. Staffing agencies use staffing agency software, for arranging job seekers in their database. This software not only arranges job seekers who register online, but also helps them in applying for top companies. It also allows job providers to register their company and later search for talented individuals, present in staffing agency database. This recruitment database acts as back office for staffing firms. It allows staffing agency to search and sort things according to their convenience.

This virtual software makes work of job providers easy. It allows job providers to search candidates from database find ideal candidates required for jobs. When job provider is satisfied by job seekers profile, he orders staffing agency to call him for interview. This recruiting software sends job seeker interview call and schedules it according to provider’s convenience. All these virtual staffing agencies are cost effective. These agencies take less fees from job providers as compensation.

E-learning

Saturday, March 21st, 2009

Computers have re-defined the ways we used to learn. But then again, we should not forget the fact that there is hardly any field which has been left unaffected by computers or its related technology. So, its not hard to figure out the reasoning behind the use of computers for teaching as well as learning purposes. A new system known as e-learning has evolved & has become an instant hit among the masses.

E-learning or electronic learning means that people can learn a particular course offered by CBT planet through the world wide web & computers. It helps to cut the cost as well as remove the bottlenecks faced in the third world countries. So, it has really come as a boon for them especially, for the persons who are under-privileged. We all know that computer training of cbt planet is the need of the hour. With just minimal amount of training a person can become computer literate & start working with the computers without much of a hassle. Countries like India & China have invested huge amount of money in setting up an infrastructure of e-learning. These countries believe that by going with the system of e-learning, they will be able to provide education to their vast population at a fraction of the cost had they invested in the traditional system of learning. So, it hardly amazes me when most of the software engineers come-up from these countries having got their initial computer training through a system of e-learning.

Verizon Wireless copies Alltel’s My Circle

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

Verizon Wireless is set to announce Thursday that subscribers on some qualifying plans will be able to pick five or 10 phone numbers that they can call for free, without drawing down their plan’s minutes.

There is no added charge for the service. It mimics a popular feature called “My Circle” at Alltel Corp., a smaller carrier that Verizon Wireless bought in January.

Verizon Wireless’ announcement means that former Alltel customers will be able to keep the feature when they sign up for new plans, and expands the availability to other Verizon Wireless customers.

Verizon Wireless, now the country’s largest cellular carrier, is calling the feature “Friends & Family.” It will be available starting Sunday. Customers on single-line plans starting at $60 per month will get five free numbers, and those on family plans starting at $90 per month for two lines will get ten free numbers.

Customers will need to sign up for the feature and pick their numbers online.

T-Mobile USA, the fourth-largest carrier, has a similar feature, which it calls “myFaves.”

MCI, which Verizon Communications Inc. later bought, had a long-distance plan called “Friends & Family” in the early 1990s.

Verizon Wireless is a joint venture of New York-based Verizon and Vodafone Group PLC of Britain.
