Introduction to the Internet training course
Multiplex have now been running these training courses since July 1995, their popularity being in the plain language approach with a minimal amount of jargon or technicalities. Group size is normally between three and a maximum of five, thus allowing everybody to get involved. Although the session is planned as two and a half hours it is not unusual to continue for about three hours as the groups enthusiasm increases.
The basic sessions covers general information about the Internet, the World Wide Web, email, newsgroups and FTP. Lecture notes are provided. Searching the Web for items relating to the companies and individuals attending is used to bring home the relevance of the Internet to everyday business use.
All students are requested to fill in a registration form prior to their courses giving details of their computer knowledge, their Internet knowledge and areas of general or special interest. For companies this usually means looking at competitors and customers pages. We have been taxed with many curious subjects for research, many of which have been "Unfindable" by other Internet Companies. The Shetland Island Bird Watching Club pages were found in less than three minutes, manufacturers of car tyre valves, with product drawings, did however take nearly twenty minutes.
To leave the seminar knowing enough about the Internet to be able to make business decisions on how to use it.
The Internet is going to affect many different aspects of business life. A company will benefit most if representitives of Sales, Marketing, Finance, Personnel, Secretarial as well as Chief Executives attend.
As one executive said after seven senior staff attended over two evenings "We can now have a meeting about what to do with the internet and have something to talk about".

Web Design
Specifically aimed at the partner/proprietor/designer who wants to run his own web site but cannot afford to learn by trial and error. You will be taught what is, and is not, the best way to produce pages and images. The page make up will be done directly from a text editor, eg notepad or wordpad, so that correct and efficient layout is used. These simple programmes are far better than the "What You See Is Nearly But Not Quite What You Get" HTML authoring programmes available to-day.
We will share with you trade secrets of how to make pages searchable and how to download pictures fast. During the session you will probably produce two or three linked pages.
