I'd like to whisk you back to year 9 and present you with a simple arithmetic word problem:

Margaret's favorite food is lobster. In fact, she eats one every day. Margaret has two lobster-buying options. She can either buy an endless year-supply of many kinds of lobsters for £2,495.00 or she can pay someone £21.99 for a lobster every time she eats one. If Margaret continues to eat lobsters at this rate, which lobster-buying option is the best deal?

The answer to Margaret's problem is obvious; she should pay £2495 for a year-supply of lobsters. The math is simple. If she were to spend £21.99 a day, she'd pay over eight thousand pounds in one year for lobsters.


Now I'd like to talk to you about the importance and costs of computer training.

In this high-tech 21st century, computer training is essential for any type of organisation, whether it be a company, a school, a non-profit group, etc. An organisation can't assume that its employees or members will just "catch on" to programs like Microsoft Outlook or PowerPoint. TechSoup.org, a technology resource for nonprofits, says, "Training is essential to an effective use of technology in your organisation; without it staff will waste substantial time and money. It should be an integral part of your technology plan, and of your budget." There you have it- time is money, and employees will waste both trying to figure out how to develop a spreadsheet or perform a mail merge without formal training.

 So, what is an organisation to do? Many businesses, schools, governments, etc., purchase dull computer training textbooks or hire expensive IT trainers. Or worse yet, many organisations can't provide training for their employees because it is simply too expensive. A quick search for computer training textbooks on Amazon.com shows that textbooks range from £21.99 to £75.99. Yikes! And the Information Technology Training Association's (ITTA's) 1998 training survey shows that companies paid computer trainers an average of £638 to £965.00 a day to hold computer classes. That doesn't even include the cost of class materials. Another popular training group from The City of London charges £3,160.00 to teach a 5-person computer class for one day. Ouch!

 Fortunately, there is a solution to this mess- computer courseware that is customisable and sold to you on one CD or through an Internet link, making it cost-effective (barely any production cost) and print-on-demand (print as many copies as you want, whenever you want, or just read it online

Does customisable/print-on demand training sound too good to be true? Let's take RJ Computing, the most cost-effective customisable/print-on-demand courseware on the market, for example. Like Margaret's year-supply of lobster, RJ Computing offers a complete library of user friendly, customisable computer training courseware for only £3,495.00 For this price, you can print as many copies of RJ Computing's courseware as much as you'd like for one year. Also, you receive any new titles released during that year for free. And the yearly renewal fee is only 30% of the original cost! (Keep in mind that you don't have to purchase the entire courseware library; you can purchase single modules or quick references, if you'd like.)

The math is simple; avoid wasting your organisation’s money on super-technical training textbooks and high-priced trainers. Give RJ Computing a try.
