Keyboarding or Typing

This is a self-paced class with continuous enrollment


Cost: $20.00
Typing, or Keyboarding as it is commonly called, is a skill that has become increasingly
important in the computer age. For students, keyboarding is essential for effective computer use
and has been shown to improve writing and study skills. Likewise, many adults who never felt
they needed or wanted any secretarial skills are now required to use computers in their work, and
find they must know keyboard and typing skills to do their jobs. Even those who simply wish to
dabble online from their homes, sending email and surfing the internet, need to know basic
keyboarding skills.

In short, keyboarding skills have become essential in today’s computer age. This course will
teach you how to type with speed, accuracy, and control regardless of the type of equipment you
are using. Exercises are gauged to take the beginning typist from “hunt-and-peck” to 60 words
per minute through a series of exercises that gradually build typing skills. If the student practices
30-45 minutes daily and completes each exercise according to plan, he or she should be able to
type at least 60 words per minute by the end of the course.
