COMMUNICATION RELEASE
Tech Corps Wisconsin, Inc. (TCW) is pleased to
announce the latest effort in its continued support of children and families in
the state with the announcement of a new business training initiative.
At Tech Corps Wisconsin, we are a non-profit
volunteer group in the business of providing access to computer technology for
those who traditionally do not have access. We serve schools of all kinds,
non-profit agencies working with children and low income families. This service
includes using volunteers and staff to provide refurbished computer systems,
training, support and Internet access to these clients.
As an outflow of this work, we have capacity,
capability and desire to provide these types of programs to businesses which we
would normally not serve. This initiative is intended to allow us to further
improve computer literacy in
Through a joint arrangement with Racine-based
Society’s Assets, Inc., a non-profit provider of services to people with
physical and sensory disabilities, the first implementation of the this program
will involve 100 employees receiving computer skills in Outlook 2002 beginning March
2, 2004, and running through the month of March.
“This training program will help us to better serve
our customers and improve the efficiency of our employees” said Bruce Nelsen,
Executive Director of Society’s Assets, Inc. “TCW has a great track record of
providing these types of programs, making a difference in our community, and is
a very cost-effective local provider these services”, he added.
We need your support to
allow us to continue to do this work. To volunteer, donate or sponsor please
