| I know SOS do a lot of vocational training e.g. Woodwork Car mechanics etc not a clue about social work training though but if you contact them they are very accommodating. |

| I think Quantum Associates is no more... I read on a paper this summer that their HQ Building was up for auction & people interested should come to Kanifing.. |

madiba, thankyou but, what amazes me is that the computer training companies DO NOT HAVE WEBSITE, go figure.
The SOS village has HQ in UK, so i will emal them for a list of prices.
I am just scared to pay for a course that is no good |

i should explain, i understand that learning a computer skill will help people, but does it help get a job.
i was all set to get sponsorship for hotel reception traininng but that fell through. It is hard to guage what skills are needed. |

Jambo, dont forget the exam fees & courses are sometimes carried out in 'units' with exams.
Each unit can incur a separate fee. |

hiz princess, the course is not for me, but i am looking to set up a sponsorship for two students, everytime i go something changes, even if i pay for the course there is always an "extra" what gets me i they do not have web site??? but are computer courses.
when you phone up they say come and see us and then charge you for the photocopy of the syllabus,
sab i was hoping that the exam fees would be include because i coul dnot imagine a student doing the course and noting wanting the exma and certificate as proof of attending and passing course.
