Laragh Courseware’s e-learning
offerings look set to revolutionize the training of office
personnel. Cape Town based Laragh has launched the highly
interactive, audio-enabled, Office Administration Training
Series to positive sentiment from
industry previewers and educators. The series consists
of three Computer Based Training (CBT) courses, focusing
on communication
skills, general administration,
and bookkeeping.
"We are bringing the best of
technology-based training to this field, which up to now
has been the Cinderella of the corporate education world,"
says Laragh Courseware CEO, Tom O'Neill. "The traditional
roles of office secretaries and clerks are fast disappearing.
The modern office administrator is a multi-tasker able
to face new challenges, many of which call for executive
decision making. Equally, career advancement opportunities
unheard of in the traditional sectretary’s life are
now possible. The key to meeting these challenges confidently
is the ability to demonstrate the right skills."
O'Neill emphasizes commerce and industry
demands on job-seekers to become more appropriately skilled.
"Enormous demands are being made on potential employees
to make themselves attractive to employers. Courseware
like ours can make it relatively easy for adult learners,
those in the informal business sector, the unemployed,
school leavers, and graduates to upgrade their competencies."
"Our Office Administration Training
Series represents a large
development spend, is based on extensive expert research,
and deploys the best instructional design and e-learning
principles to help learners reach specific competencies
in a matter of days. We’re confident that in the
long run, as word gets out about how good this courseware
is, we’ll reap the benefits of our commitment to
this under-serviced sector."
Laragh's Office Administration Training
Series comprehensively covers
the curriculum of the Certified Secretarial Professional
(CSP) set by the International Association of Administrative
Professionals (IAAP).
The courses come on three CDs and
are accessible on standalone machines running Windows
3.1 or higher, workstations, and networks.
