The primary purpose of the Training Center is to provide individuals with a learning opportunity that will enhance their employability by maintaining or acquiring new skills.  We will provide both instructor led classes and web-based lessons. Instructor led classes will focus on topics such as typing (and ten-key) skills, word processing and general computer basics. Other plans include offering structured instruction that will prepare a person to pass a GED exam. In addition, we will offer personal development in job seeking skills, job retention and money management. This is an excellent learning opportunity for individuals wanting to enhance their employability by maintaining or learning new skills.  Goodwill of South Mississippi is proud to be moving forward with this project.    Providing employment-related education, training, counseling and job opportunities for people with disabilities, economic disadvantages, and other barriers to employment is the core mission of Goodwill Industries.  If you would like more information about our training lab or would like to volunteer to help with this project, please contact Trish Waugh at (228) 863-2323 ext. 17.   COMPUTER TRAINING CLASS INFORMATION: Enhance your employability by maintaining or improving a new skill State of the art computer lab using Dell wide-screen laptop computers Modern projection technology for improved viewing  Individualized and group instruction provided by a certified instructor Microsoft® Office Specialist Approved Courseware Class size limited to a maximum of 10 students Course duration is 90 minutes, two evenings per week for 8 consecutive weeks Certificate of achievement issued upon successful completion of course                      WHEN:       Varies depending on course                       WHERE:   LeRoy Modenbach Training Center                                          2301 31st Street                                              Gulfport, MS.                       (Next door to the administration building)                                        CONTACT:       mbauman@goodwillsms.org                                                              -- Or phone -- Mitch Bauman (228) 868-0731
