Barbara Butler, Director of the Westport Department of Human Services announced today the return of  the newly enhanced CTWorks Career Coach at Westport Town Hall. On Thursday, March 20, the Coach will be offering a beginner’s class in Microsoft Word 2007 from 10 – 12 PM followed by an intermediate class in Word 2007 from 1-3 PM. Contact the Westport Department of Human Services for specific course description information.

The Career Coach is a “training center” tour bus equipped with ten wireless computer labs offering free computer classes to residents in the greater Norwalk area. The mobile unit operates on a monthly schedule of visits to various community locations and is accessible to people with disabilities. Area residents interested in registering should contact the Westport Department of Human Services at 341-1050 or via e-mail at humansrv@westportct.gov.

Ms. Butler hopes that by offering the CTWorks Career Coach in the Westport area, many residents who are wishing to improve their computer skills in the Microsoft Office 2007 software will find it convenient and useful in pursuing their personal goals. The Career Coach classes will be cancelled if the host site’s schools are cancelled or delayed due to
inclement weather.
