 Dearne Valley Venture - ICT

IT Suite image Our IT Suite

We are responsible for computer based training that goes on at the Centre. Unlike many organisations that are around, we are very much community led, that is if enough students ask for a particular course then we will endeavour to make it available to them.  We can train individuals in one-to-one training or group training in our IT Suite.

We don`t do certified IT classes, although these are available through out outside Agency Partners, the emphasis here is very much learning for fun.

Computer based training at DVV

In addition to our Youth Services, we also hold 'Drop-in-Sessions' for adult learners. Where adults of any age can come to use the computers for almost any purpose they require.

We also run classes where adults can learn anything from basic computer skills, to software specifics. such as Word Processing, Spread sheets, Databases, File Management, Web page/site building etc. Most of our classes are Free or available for a small fee.
