IT Training, Online Communities & Surveys

About

Training We conduct OpenOffice.org training. OpenOffice.org is a free ($0) office suite that is equivalent and compatible with Microsoft Office. In its own way, it is as powerful as Microsoft Office, and even does somethings better. Best of all, it's absolutely FREE! OpenOffice.org runs on Microsoft Windows operating system and a number of other operating systems such as Linux and Macintosh OS X. There are millions of OpenOffice.org users around the world. Increasingly, not-for-profit organisations, government agencies, and businesses are replacing Microsoft Office with OpenOffice.org to reduce the burden of IT costs. So, if Microsoft Office licenses are draining your donor dollars, it is time to consider switching to OpenOffice.org.
