IBS Announces Seminar Series
Through customer input and suggestions, IBS has
developed a series of seminars
designed for both
those who are new to personal computing and those who
have experience but want to learn more. The series
focuses on the most exciting and essential topics
regarding the use of PC technology, including:
Course I - Personal Computing in the 21st Century
offers the home user or small business owner key
planning strategies for best leveraging their initial
investment, the opportunity to learn more about the
hardware (both desktop and notebook) options on the
market today, and identification of the differences in
the various versions of Windows on the market.
Course II - Personal PC/Notebook security and best
practices will expand into virus and
spyware/ adware prevention, what products are available
to best protect your PC and detection/ prevention
strategies to keep your data and hardware safe.
Course III - Computing in a Networked Environment
will offer an
overview of networking your home or small business. It
will give the participant an understanding of how a
network works and the ways this environment can be used
to streamline resources, simplify computing and protect data.
All classes are
run from 6pm to 8pm at the IBS Training Center
at 161 Northampton Street in Easthampton. For more

IBS launches New Employee Orientation Training
In response to the challenges faced by our clients
through employee turnover during times of growth or change, IBS has designed a program
specifically for new employees and those who seek basic
PC skills in order to work more efficiently. The goal is to
give the student an overview of the
important aspects of the
Microsoft Windows Operating System, as well as working
in a network environment, file management concepts,
Internet usage, email etiquette, and an overview of
security threats and prevention.
Visit our
web site for more information.
IBS announces Security Awareness Training
This program
offers a thorough and detailed exploration of how IT
Security for organizations is achieved. The scope of
this course is appropriate for sole proprietorships up
to large corporations, and includes a discussion and
overview of IT Security as a Risk Management
discipline. In addition, we examine the implications of
inadequate or non-existent security policies and
procedures, and discuss how organizations must balance
the equation between security, usability, and cost.
Visit our
web site for more information.
IBS can tailor the content of either course to your
company’s specifications, providing a more meaningful
discussion for the student. The training can be held in
our training facility or on-site at your location. Class
time frames are flexible.
