Affordable Microsoft Office

Did you know that as a TAFE NSW/OTEN student that you are eligible to purchase academic versions of software applications? These are fully featured products but are heavily discounted to help meet a student's budget. An excellent example of this Microsoft's Office Ultimate 2007 package for $75.00.

The reason we are not currently running sessions?

Hello students The IT section is currently working furiously developing 2 new courses. Cert IV Help Desk and Diploma in Systems Admin. All our efforts are currently directed towards finishing these courses as soon as possible. This is why we are not currently running any sessions at the moment, but as soon as we free up some time then we will send out announcements as to when the next session will be run. regards Paul King IT Teacher
