[LUG] Ingots computer courses (torquay) (hele hub)

 

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi

Just got some information on courses run by the hele hub, they are now
based in torre, torquay.

checking out their website www.helehub.org,  they have a basic contact
form.

I have sent a message to suggest they run ingots course,  partly as they
are recognised world wide,

if others who are interested and are local to Torquay could do the same,
perhaps we can get somewhere local that can actually run some,  and
start educating people on free and open source software.

the more people that put in a request,  then perhaps they will consider
it,

Please do not comment on the list re the website,  if you feel you can
offer them some sort of assistance, please get in touch directly.  I
don't have time to go in and help them.

lets get together on this and see if we can move people away from ECDL
to open systems,  Given that a lot of the users are going to be on low
income then pushing open systems may be a good idea.

anyone up for perhaps going in as a group and chatting to them about
offering copies of the open disc or similar to clients.  We would have
to arrange it.  its worth trying if they say no then fine, but at least
we have tried.
