Alternatives to Taking a Short Course

Taking a short course is not the only way to learn how to use computers at Virginia Tech. Self-study alternatives to short courses may be more effective and convenient. Instructional materials such as tutorials, handouts, and class notes are available. A description of alternatives is available from Gopher ( gopher.vt.edu ) by selecting these menu titles.
