Careers:: TRAINING

Abstract

Britain is now one step ahead in Information Technology with a revolutionary method of computer keyboard training, devised and developed by Pat and Almena Braham, which has been tested by both the Manpower Services Commission and the Local Government Training Board. The method teaches all 26 letters of the alphabet in one quick easy lesson. With the combination of a musical tape and an instructional textbook, weeks of drudgery have been reduced to a couple of hours of pleasurable learning. An average trainee using The Almena Method can come to the keyboard, never having touched one before, and type long sentences by touch alone after only two hours — even those who have tried and failed to learn the keyboard by traditional methods. It is especially appealing to executives and professional personnel who need to use a computer terminal quickly and efficiently.
