Computer Training: Overview

NDA has been at the forefront of the computer training industry in Tasmania since the early eighties. Most of our courses are written 'in house' and have been refined over many years and thousands of presentations. Our courses are highly practical and focus on teaching skills that can be applied immediately in a business, government or commercial environment.

Types of computer training offered

Public courses
Public courses are scheduled regularly at NDA's training centres in Hobart, Launceston and Devonport. Many of our public courses are 'split day' courses that give clients an opportunity to practise new skills at the workplace and come back with questions on the second day. A maximum of nine people attend public courses.

Private courses
Private courses are scheduled on demand and can be conducted either in our training rooms or at your premises. Private courses may be customised with the client's preferred content and the option of incorporating the client's own data and systems. Any number of people may attend but we recommend a maximum of nine.

Customised courses
NDA provides tailored courses to your exact requirements. These include using examples and exercises relevant to your organisation, providing upgrade courses if your organisation is moving from one software platform to another or adapting courses to suit the particular requirements of a group within your organisation.

One-on-one training
We have had excellent results in providing training 1:1. This type of training is particularly useful when time is limited, training is required at short notice or assistance is required with specific features of a product.

Walkabout Trainer
NDA's Walkabout Trainer delivers a mix of consulting and training at your desk. Use this facility when you need a hand to develop a database, spreadsheet, Word template or project schedule.

After hours training
NDA provides after hours and weekend training. Our trainers and facilities are available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week and training can be conducted at a time to suit participant and corporate requirements.
