Electric Paper launches ECDL training materials for XP users

Electric Paper is launching a Microsoft Office XP suite version of its European/International Computer Driving Licence (ECDL/ICDL) computer-based training, assessment and testing programme.

Electric Paper’s XP courseware for ECDL/ICDL, which is fully approved by the ECDL Foundation, is available in CD-ROM, LAN and Intranet versions. It contains built-in assessments help to determine students’ levels of competency before, during and after training.

James Evans, of Electric Paper, commented: “According to the American Institute for Research, users of Windows XP are up to 25 per cent more productive than users of Windows 2000 while doing common business tasks. However, these efficiency gains will only be realised if users are familiar with the functionality and can use their information technology skills to get the best out of the software. In addition, upgrades to applications can be disruptive and can place a burden on support staff. By clearly highlighting the differences between Office XP and Office 2000, Electric Paper makes it easier for users to learn XP thereby reducing the support effort and costs”.

This addition to Electric Paper’s existing range of IT literacy training products will be on display at Electric Paper’s exhibition stand at the Learning Technologies event, taking place at London’s Olympia 2 on 29th and 30th January 2003.
