Q:
Do you only provide computer training manuals?
A:
At this stage, we provide only computer training manuals, but we can be of service in compiling or sourcing other manuals. A manual, mainly a training manual, is a book of instructions. A manual is designed to provide an overview of a topic before attending a class, an outline to follow during a training course, a subject matter reference for post-training, and a general reference.
Writing and compiling manuals are time consuming and require practice, skill and experience. If you have an idea or expert knowledge about a specific subject, we can write or compile the manual for you.
We are resellers for most major book sellers, including Pearson, Oxford University Press Group, Maskew Miller, Macmillan South Africa, and Cambridge. Contact us today via our website or email for a quote.
