Nadejda Visnapu, entrepreneur
Nadejda Visnapu has an entrepreneurship experience. She has a small business selling herbal and health teas.
Although her business is small, however it requires using new technologies in stock count, order entry, not to mention the accounting.
Crisis of 2008 hit on all types of business, number of customers decreased, Nedzhda had to cut the accountant’s salary and, accordingly, to take some accounting on herself.
Now it was obvious that she could not do much not having knowledge of computer programs. Nadejda passed ORT-KesherNet courses and have not ever regretted.
Now her work became much easier. A few more people came for ORT-KesherNet computer courses on Nadejda’s recommendation.
Elena Zabarskaya, teacher
Elena Zabarskaya, teacher of ORT-KesherNet computer class in Tver, finished a special training for tutor GET-IT program, organised in Tula in February 2011.
She said: “In the process of training I realized that this course is very interesting, accessible and actual. The form of training is up-to-date very much, because it gives an opportunity to use the computer technology about which many people heard but never applied in their work. Having acquired with skills in using popular computer programs, one may help people to manage their business as well as to make time-management without any additional effort or costs. Therefore, this program is interesting to people of different ages and various professions. The program includes Internet games which is extremely popular nowadays. Speaking about our city, I can say that it’s very important to educate and train our citizens that allow them doing their business and starting up new businesses within the growing competition.
I’m grateful very much to the course organizers for the chance to get acquainted with GET-IT program. Hope for further cooperation”.
