Hello Pradeep Kapoor sir, I've forwarded this information to Samarthanam Trust For The Disabled an NGO here in Bangalore as they are planning to start a new computer course and slowly expand to other districts of Karnataka. Mr. Vikram sir, one of their representative might be visiting you may be in next week.

Re: [AI] Free Computer Training for VI
Thank you Pradeep Kapoor sir for the information. Do you train the teachers of the NGO's or just provide assistance in developing the syllabus according to their needs. I would request you to send me your website address (if any) and contact number. I will forward this information to the NGO with which I am associated. They are planning to expand their computer lab.

Re: [AI] Free Computer Training for VI
Dear Col. Kapoor: Just out of curiosity, I would like to know if you also support non-technical educational initiatives that may otherwise help awareness about disability? I am asking this specifically because including information about disability in textbooks, as someone mentioned in a seminar recently in Bangalore, will give a fair understanding about PWD's and the issues connected with them. This will also help us create an informed society (with respect to disability) for the future. Aren't you interested in a broader initiative like that, where technology can certainly component? Since you have done syllabus development, you seem to be in a better position to take up an initiative like this as well. Or at least that is what I think when I read your mail.

Re: [AI] Free Computer Training for VI
Dear Colonel Kapoor Thanks for your email... The pre-requisites have been evolved (since we have limited seats) to benefit adults who are looking for employment after their computer education. The course has rigorous amount of practical exercises and especially gives exposure to exceptions which will occur in real life situations at work. Apart from computers, students also develop English, analytical skills and self awareness. We have also taught students who come from a rural background and they have shown the same level of intelligence as anybody else and have a real desire to learn. The objective of that course was difference. It was for providing literacy and using computers as a tool for secondary education. Having said the above, we are always looking to learn and share from everyone to provide benefit to persons with disability.
