Business workflow analysis   Because of our background in forms analysis and behavioral systems, CCSI is uniquely qualified to examine workflow within an office or plant and recommend improvements to workflow for efficiency and cost savings.

Pre-sales computerization needs analysis   This answers the questions:
"What can computerization do for my office / business?"
"How much do I need?"
"How can I automate and not spend too much or get too little?"
"How can I expand my existing system?"

Custom Computer Training   CCSI excels at developing training programs specifically for a unique business need, such as a short course on MS-DOS (US Forest Service, CopyRite) or Windows (Key Technology). Give us the topic and overview you want, and we'll develop the basic materials, provide the presentation / hands-on training and include competency-based examinations if desired.  We may even have already developed most of what you need.

General Computer Training   Topics in this category of training include:
How to buy a computer
How to perform routine maintenance on PCs
How to upgrade PCs
How to set up and use the internet
How to use MS Word, Wordperfect
How to use MS Excel,  Corel Quattro Pro
 
These are the basic "how-to" hardware courses that not everyone wants to take, but nearly everyone needs.

Office Productivity Training   Need training on office productivity tools, such as Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), WordPerfect Office (Word Perfect, Quattro Pro) or want to learn the new StarOffice system? We can provide the training for your staff, just as we have for numerous other businesses.

Programming Training   Since 1973, we have been writing and debugging computer programs and can teach you to do the same. Our programming courses include both traditional languages (BASIC, c, c++, dBASE), web pages (HTML), newer languages (java, javascript, web-based cgi scripts, macro languages) and can provide the skills needed to develop your own unique programming language if needed.

Back to the top

Custom Programming   Since 1973, we have been writing and debugging computer programs -- for our internal use and for commercial use. We use whatever language is best suited for the job, and can use a variety of operating systems. If the software is not commercially available, we can write it for you. If a commercial program needs modification or add-ons, we can help.

e-commerce   This covers whatever you need to setup and maintain an internet business: design of web sites, training in web site design, cgi scripting, on-line transaction processing, security issues, and so on. CCSI can provide the finished product, or can teach you to do it.
