    Computer Loyalty Card

    Course runs in O'hanlon House Oxford every friday morning and Oxford Gatehouse Dropin Thursday evenings. "Assessment" is informal and takes account of what your already know and suggests ways to expand your "portfolio". The card is a permanent record that can be shown to potential employers or other interested parties. I'm looking for sponsors who will offer a free coffee or product comparable to other loyalty card schemes. Please do print out and use elsewhere if you like the approach. To contact the teacher email chris@homeless.me.uk
