Summer is an ideal time to pump up the skills you need in your job or your job search. One source of first-rate training in a wide variety of technology topics is Indiana University. Their tech-training classes are available to anyone.
I happen to know of IU's offerings because I'm a grad student at IU's School of Library & Information Science at Indianapolis, so I get the university's newsletters about information technology. I was surprised to learn that all the technology training that's available for free to faculty, staff and students is also available for $25-$65 to the general public. IU alumni get a discount. Class subjects include: Microsoft Office applications, such as Access, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint and Word; website creation and management tools; Adobe Creative Suite (CS5) and Flash; and global information systems (GIS).
You can visit the IU IT training website for more information, including a downloadable PDF copy of the university's technology classes' descriptions and summer schedule for the Indianapolis campus.
