What we do

The IT Training Team are committed to developing the computing skills of staff and students. We do so by planning, developing and delivering programmes of training, learning materials and advice for University staff and students on the effective use of IT. In particular, we are the main contributor to the following programmes of skills training:

• General IT courses for staff and research postgraduates, most of which are advertised through the University's Staff Development programme
• University (Corporate Information) Systems training for staff (excluding Student Information Systems), some of which are advertised through the University's Staff Development programme, but many more are offered by arrangement
• IT Skills courses for taught students advertised on the Courses Online Booking System (COBS) or arranged with faculties and departments

As well as delivering courses to groups of people, we offer one-to-one training and consultancy (especially on using the web and University systems).

To support courses and the use of computer systems we produce a wide range of learning resources, most of which are suitable for self-study.
