Typing Training

An entire section will be dedicated to developing keyboarding skills. Students will be taken through a series of lab simulations that will give them practice with finger placement and how to increase their words per minute. With highlighted errors, students will easily be able to identify mistakes and improve their accuracy over time.

Animated Training Videos

At this level, we know student engagement can be difficult when dealing with technical materials. New animated videos will be featured throughout this course to help students learn in a more targeted way.
