Counselling & demo class
These are skills you learn by doing, so the classes are run that way: short explanations, then practice on the computer in front of you while the trainer watches and corrects.
You spend the class working on a lab computer, not watching a projector.
The trainer has time to sit with you, check your work and fix habits before they set.
Every topic ends in a task you complete yourself, on the same software offices use.
Come back with a doubt from your job or exam preparation and a trainer will go through it.
The course is built for learners arriving from different starting points.
A practical skill to add while you decide on, or continue, further studies.
Candidates preparing for clerk, data entry and other posts that test computer or typing skills.
Learn at your own pace in a friendly batch, for work from home or everyday use.
Patient, step-by-step help with phones, computers, online payments and staying safe online.
Run billing, stock and accounts yourself instead of depending on someone else.

The stack you work with in class and in the live projects.
Finishing Basic Computer puts three separate documents in your file — each one for a different part of what you did.
Awarded when you complete the Basic Computer programme. Where the track has a recognised vendor exam, we prepare you for that as well.
For the live project you build during Basic Computer, naming the work and the tools you used — so the project on your CV is backed by paper, not just claimed.
Take your training as a university internship and you finish with an internship letter covering your weeks on a project team.
See internship trainingIllustration — ask to see a real certificate at the centre.
How the paper is used
The roles Basic Computer prepares you for, and the kinds of employers who use these skills. Outcomes depend on your own work and the market — we prepare you for interviews, we do not promise a job or a number.
Placement support comes with every course — portfolio review, mock interviews and guidance on where to apply.
Talk about placementsMost Basic Computer courses cover a similar syllabus. What separates them is what you build while you are there, and what happens after the last session.

At most places: Varies — worth asking whether you finish with work you can show.
At techcadd: A completion certificate when you finish the course.
At most places: Varies from course to course.
At techcadd: Included with the course: portfolio review, mock interviews and preparation for the roles you are targeting.

Compare us on the same points before you enrol anywhere — sit a demo class and ask to see the project work students finish with.
Still unsure? A ten-minute call with a counsellor usually settles it faster than any brochure.

Anyone. Students after 10th or 12th, government job aspirants, homemakers, shop owners, senior citizens and anyone who has never used a computer properly all join this course.

Yes. Many Punjab government job applications are filled online and several posts expect basic computer knowledge. This course covers both, and you can add English or Punjabi Typing if your post has a typing test.
