Element K Training
Element K offers training resources in a variety of applications. Their offerings take several different forms.
Element K and Adobe
Adobe has joined forces with them to make some of Element K's offerings in Adobe applications available to the general public. One-year subscriptions to on-line services in a specific topic, such as Photoshop, are discounted to employees of educational institutions.
Adobe also offers free training for educators. To register, go to: http://www.adobe.com/education/training/training_form.html
They have a section with Free curriculum resources which can be used for self-training, as well as curriculums to be presented.
Free sample courses on some Adobe products, including Photoshop and Acrobat are available at: http://adobe.elementk.com/.

Other products
Element K also offers training in Corel WordPerfect, all Microsoft Office applications (Access, Excel, PowerPoint, and Word), Windows XP, and the Internet.
They offer these on a subscription basis. Subscriptions for each application, such as Word, cost approximately $100 a year. (The cost varies by topic.) They include a monthly publication, unlimited on-line tutorial, and the ability to search all archived publications on that application. Once one person in our organization has registered for a topic, additional users can be added for $20 per person.
A comprehensive listing of topics is located at: http://elementkjournals.com/index.asp. For further information on subscriptions, please contact: Michael DeWall at 877-202-3714 (toll free) or email him at: Michael_DeWall@elementk.com
If you choose to avail yourself of this option, please contact Barbara Wright. We'll track who is using this option, so we don't pay the initial fee per course more than once.
