MS Powerpoint can be an extremely helpful tool for use in classrooms or 
in any situation requiring a projected presentation. 

SABES West has made 8 seats available to ABE practitioners in an Intro 
to PowerPoint training being offered by CareerPoint at their offices in 
Holyoke, MA.  The training will take place on July 16th, 2008 from 9:30

And, in general, if you have interest in learning computer applications 
that would be useful for your ABE work, and see them being offered at 
CareerPoint, give me a call and we may be able to arrange covering the 
workshop fee.
