2. PCUG TRAINING:
The PCUG Committee is seeking more volunteers to assist with Training 
Coordination and Training Delivery.

Training Coordinator:
This is mainly a liasion role between trainers and other PCUG support
volunteers, to coordinate a successful training session or workshop.
Teaching is *not* a prerequisite of the role. Experience has shown that
this position would not require a great deal of time and effort.
Tasks include to seek out trainers, and work with the trainer to:
- oversee the booking of the training room or media room, in consultation
with the office manager;
- promote the training session in consultation with the newsletter editor
and web coordinator;
- coordinate access needs to the PCUG centre;
- liaise any special requirements with technical support; and
- report to the PCUG committee.

Training Delivery:
We are also looking for more trainers. Please bear in mind that most of
the members are seeking basic tuition (For example: how to use word,
email, attachments to email and general use of the Internet).
Members are also  enquiring after more specific sessions such as multimedia.
Training may be day or evening, weekday or weekend, a single workshop, or
span several sessions.

If you are interested in helping out with any of the above training needs,
please email pcug@pcug.org.au.

Ann Byrne
