The difference at Wintec is that students learn from tutors who have extensive experience as practicing professionals in their field. At Wintec, we ensure that students develop the skills that they need to actually do the job!
Students will spend most of their time on a computer using the latest version of Microsoft Office to learn advanced techniques in creating business documents such as reports and spreadsheets. They will also learn MYOB software, which is widely used by small businesses.
The final week of the programme is spent in a real office environment where students will be able to put their new skills into practice.
As a general guideline the expectation is that students will be required to be at Wintec up to five days per week (as a full-time student). This can be from Monday – Friday anytime between 8am and 7pm. The maximum in-class time would be 16 hours per week plus self-directed study or work placement.
This programme could lead to a variety of office-related jobs such as receptionist, office junior, administrator, records officer or data processor.
