NewLink, Lincolnshire
NewLink is an IT training provider working with adults with disabilities and restricted mobility. Our home-based training scheme provides up to 24 training hours in computer skills and use of the Internet for people who are either unable to attend a course outside their home or find it very difficult to do so e.g. those with restricted mobility, carers who cannot leave their charges, the visually impaired and those for whom transport to a Learning Centre is very difficult.
There is a £5.00 charge to help with administration but no other fees to pay provided that you are resident in Lincolnshire, aged 19+, and you are in genuine need of being trained in your own home.
The home-based scheme works in the following way. A NewLink tutor will visit you in your own home for between one and two hours at a time. During these sessions, they will help you to acquire skills and knowledge which will enable you to understand and make better use of your computer and the Internet.
Before leaving, they will agree a series of computer related exercises with you for you to complete before their next visit. These exercises will revise and extend the topics covered during their two-hour visit.
If you don`t have a computer, NewLink may freely lend you one for the duration of your training. You would, however, be expected to insure NewLink`s computer against fire and theft. Also, at the conclusion of your training, NewLink would retrieve the computer so that it could help another learner.
If you like the sound of the above and feel that you have the determination to pursue the course, please contact David Hall.
