Courses include Introduction to DOS, Electronic Spreadsheets, Wordprocessing, the Information Industry, Accounting, Entrepreneurial Studies, and Communications. Instructors Doug Young and Judy Greene maintain close contact with the students by providing them with a wide range of assistance. A technical support team helps students set up their computers, connect electronically with the college and install software. Students have access to the college's counselling services which offer them advice and training in study skills, time management skills and stress management. An audio teleconferencing session allows students, instructors and a guest speaker to interact and discuss topics in the course.
Students also benefit from access to resources on the Internet.
Instructors also take the time to meet with small groups of students in one person's home to deal with start-up problems. These can range from technical problems to how to establish a work environment in the home that is respected by other members of the family. Many places in this program are funded by Human Resources Development Canada as a training initiative but other students can enrol as well. They begin by coming to the campus for intensive training and introduction to the program and the technology, including the actual assembly of the computer and installation of software. They return to their homes with the computers and all other necessary materials.
