Dubai, UAE -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/13/2010 -- Eton Institute, Dubai’s leading training and development centre located at Dubai Knowledge Village are conducting weekend computer workshops that will allow working professionals to upgrade their skills and meet the demands of an increasingly competitive labour market. These one-day workshops, conducted every Saturday, will be offered in essential topics related to Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite and Web Design.

Dr. Eli Abi Rached, Director, Eton Institute commented: “Competition is fierce in the current employment scenario and even a single additional skill such as a language or software know-how can make all the difference by giving you that extra edge above the rest. Moreover, with organisations striving to cut costs, the market trend is increasingly moving towards carrying out more and more activities in-house. This has led to a natural preference towards multi-skilled employees that can support these efforts. For instance, it is no longer sufficient for marketing professionals to just brainstorm or plan a campaign. They must also know how to actually design collateral, update websites or send HTML newsletters using programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator and Dreamweaver.”

“The computer workshops, in particular,” he added, “are an ideal opportunity as they allow individuals to further their professional development and learn skills they can apply instantly without having to take time off work.”

The computer workshops priced at just AED 490 including material and registration fees are conducted every Saturday for 4 hours and are offered in vital topics from the Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite and Web Design packages. Upcoming workshops include Illustrator Level 1, 16 January; MS Excel Level 2, 16 January; MS Word Level 2, 23 January; MS PowerPoint Level 1, 30 January; Web Design and Development I, 06 February and more.
