Does your schedule prevent You from attending one of our classes? We understand that not every business has the time to send their employees and management out for training. Don't let that stop you, we'll come to you. If you already know a lot, and just want a few additional pointers, we'll tailor our individual sessions to your specific needs.

Time after time we get big thank-you's from people who, in just a few hours, have had whole new worlds opened up to them. Up and Running Computers offers both in-home tutorial and classroom lessons for all levels of users. We have a class that starts by telling you about how computers work by opening one up and showing you the parts, before we progress to the on-button, how to use the mouse, etc. Intimidated by the Internet? Join us for a few hours on-line and we'll show you how to get in touch with the world. Need help with something else? Chances are, we already have a class planned for it... And if we don't, we will custom design one for your needs. Further, we are always happy to sit with you in your home and help you learn to use your computer to its fullest.

Up and Running Computers hires staff based upon their ability to teach, not just thier knowledge of computers. Our director of training has a Masters degree in physics from the College of William and Mary and has taught classes as large as twenty individuals and as small as one. Our training staff is well educated in computer technology and will be able to answer your questions in a thorough and understandable manner.

We keep our class size small to ensure you get personalized instruction. Our classroom is well equipped with multimedia Pentium computers, each with a CD-ROM, sound capability and internet access. All of this ensures you get the most out of your time and money.

Training is worth it. People resist training primarily for two reasons: money and time. Yet a few more dollars enables you to use your technology investment to its potential. As for time, we adjust our schedule to fit your schedule. Our classes range from three hours to two days, and if you can't come to us during class time, we'll come to you, on your time. If you have a small group, we'll even schedule a class just for your group.

Today's computers have incredible potential. The rapid advance of technology presents exciting opportunities for individuals and businesses. With a typical computer you can quickly and accurately claculate your taxes, access volumes of information on the Internet, and effortlessly generate complex charts making your data easy to understand.

Yet the power of most computers remains largely untapped. The primary reasons for this are: people don't know how to use their computers, they are afraid of damaging something if they stray from what they already know, or they are simply unfamiliar with the many applications their computers are capable of. Computer users want to get more out of their computers, but they just don't know how. Up and Running Computers has the solution.

The solution is simple: training. It is surprisingly cheap, it's fun, and the benefits of knowing how to use a computer and what a computer can be used for are enormous. Up and Running Computers, Inc. offers training tailored to both businesses and individuals. We have a multimedia classroom as well as customized on-site services.
