Hi Stuart
That all sounds very exciting and interesting. No problem with the 14 of
march rather than the 15.
But I am anxious to keep a relatively good pace going on ECDL exams. I would
like to sit one the 26 of April. I will be away the week after Easter, so I
know I will need to focus coming up to that. With that in mind, would it be
possible to do 1 hour of the course before joining the evening's
demonstrations?

Subject: [NCBI_ECDL_class] Some important information for the ECDL class
Hi everyone,
All the best
theiaWe have a couple of class updates that I would like to share with you
in this email.
1. Joe and I attended the annual conference of the Irish Computer Society
(ICS) on Friday last. ICS are the body who oversee the running of ECDL and a
number of other technology related training programmes in Ireland. This
event gives technology trainers and centre coordinators important updates on
the latest trends in ICT training, ECDL developments and other related
activities. There is a new ECDL syllabus in development stage and it
promises to be very exciting and will offer even more choice than at
present.
2. On Thursday 19th April, ICS and NCBI would like to jointly host an event
to mark the significance of ECDL training at the centre, and to recognise
the achievement of all of you as students who have undertaken or who are
undertaking the certification. I will give you more information nearer to
the time but for now, please make sure you are available on that evening.
3. We need to change the date for class next week, and are proposing
Wednesday 14th March instead of Thursday 15th. Please let Joe or myself know
if this may pose a problem for you.
4. Finally, this coming Thursday NCBI are running a mobile devices
information evening, from 6:00 pm, for about 90 minutes. As part of this
event we are testing some new technology that will allow us to open it up to
a virtual audience, comprised of other NCBI service users around the
country, who will join us via the internet, to partake in the evening's
seminar.
The subject material will focus on three types of accessible mobile phones,
Android, iPhone and Cymbian. There will be three presentations on the
evening with time for questions at the end of all three.
We have invited a number of service users in the Dublin area to join us on
the evening, but I also wanted to open this event up to the Thursday ECDL
group, so, if any of you would like to attend, you would be more than
welcome to do so, instead of having a regular class.
If anyone has any questions on the above please reply to this email and I
will be able to answer them via the class list.
Kind regards,
Stuart.
