These training courses are excellent responses to the most pressing information technology needs among many people. The Microsoft applications are basic computer tools each students must have a competency with. Most of the time, these Microsoft applications are the ones being used for projects, assignments, reports, and other major academic requirements. Also, the training courses on the different web tools are very important. These web tools are the basic elements of deeper, more complex web applications that the academic community will need to use sooner or later. The online manuals are very easy to follow. Hard-to-understand topics, concepts, and ideas are explained in a way that is easily comprehensible to lay people. The training manuals are very effective in making computer applications easier to utilize and appreciate.

This effort of Seattle University deserves high commendation from its academic community and the rest of America's education system. Moves like this set a formidable example for other learning institutions to emulate. Let us hope to see more efforts like this and be a witness to the greater empowerment of the people through information technology education.
