Potential Training Session Topics (NOTE: many of these areas
are specifically designed for increased employment marketability,
but they also pose very good money saving skills to have in the
home, even if not using these skills professionally):

Windows OS training, Internet training, hardware repair and
maintenance, network administration).

Office training, Internet, paper shredders, fax machines, copy
machines, letter writing, scheduling, phone operations,
etc.).

- Home-making (cost saving seminar for
parenting needs, parenting discussion forums and training
sessions, help-line via e-mail or phone, laundry, trash, and dish

- Volunteer opportunities (each
seminar should offer constructive ways for students to use their
skills, even if it isn’t a paid situation. Students need to
understand that volunteer experience in these skilled areas looks
awfully good on a resume and increases their marketability and
does a great good in the community).
