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.
No prior experience needed — the first modules start from fundamentals.
A practical skill to add while you decide on, or continue, further studies.
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.
Do daily work faster and take on reports and tasks you avoid today.
Eligibility
Not sure whether your background fits? Counselling is free — tell us your background and goal and we will suggest the right batch, with no obligation.
The stack you work with in class and in the live projects.
Finishing Windows & File Management puts three separate documents in your file — each one for a different part of what you did.
Awarded when you complete the Windows & File Management programme. Where the track has a recognised vendor exam, we prepare you for that as well.
For the live project you build during Windows & File Management, 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 Windows & File Management 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 Windows & File Management courses cover a similar syllabus. What separates them is what you build while you are there, and what happens after the last session.

What the call covers
Counselling and the demo class are both free.
It is a short hands-on course at our Model Town centre on operating a Windows computer — settings, files and folders, storage devices, software and printers, backups and common fixes.
Complete beginners, students, homemakers, senior citizens and office staff who can open a program but get stuck when a file goes missing or a printer stops working.
None. The course begins with switching the computer on and using the mouse.
Windows 11, with the differences in Windows 10 pointed out, since many homes and offices in Hoshiarpur still use it. The file and folder skills are the same on both.
This course is about the computer itself — Windows, files, devices and upkeep. Basic Computer is longer and also covers typing, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, email and online services. If you have time for only one, the counsellor will help you choose.
3 Weeks, across 3 modules and about 16 sessions. Weekday and weekend batches cover the same syllabus, so choose the timing that suits you.
