Looking for personal computer training to better use your computer? I offer multiple introductory to advanced computer courses and seminars for computer use.

Personal Computer training courses can be found by clicking here!


As part of Business computer training, I will provide a FREE, simple S.W.O.T. (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analysis of your existing business and online presence with key recommendations.

Strengths and weaknesses are internal to your company—things that you have some control over and can change. Examples include who is on your team, your patents and intellectual property, and your location.

Opportunities and threats are external—things that are going on outside your company, in the larger market. You can take advantage of opportunities and protect against threats, but you can’t change them. Examples include competitors, prices of raw materials, and customer shopping trends.

A SWOT analysis organizes your top strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats into an organized list and is presented simply with recommendations.
