Please see below a great opportunity to attend a FREE workshop in computing. 

 

Feel free to come along and please forward this email to your colleagues as appropriate.

 

Do you have a responsibility for computers within your organisation?

Are you left working out ICT problems yourself?

Would you like to discuss ICT related issues within a non-techie environment?

Do you work in the voluntary and community sector?

 

If you’ve answered yes to any of the above, then a group of like-minded people called ‘Accidental Techies’ may be what you’re looking for.

 

The ‘Accidental Techies’ group have previously met to discuss a wide range of hot topics around computing within the voluntary sector, including:

  • Planning and Managing ICT
  • Purchasing hardware and software
  • Where to get further help



Accidental Techie workshops are about to get going in Worcestershire, and I’d like to invite you along.

 

It’s free to attend, and the next meeting is scheduled Wednesday 12th November, 09:15-11:30 at:-
