Computer Access

 

On days without computer courses (Thursdays, Fridays, and between terms), the computer room is available for individual use. Users can make use of our Word Processing applications and also use DTP, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, etc. or use the Internet for just 35p per hour - assistance and guidance is usually available if required. Image scanning and colour printing are also available.

If you are unsure about access times or if you think you need specialised help in order to solve a problem or learn a new technique, then we encourage you to call beforehand in order for us to ensure that you can see someone with knowledge in that area.
