Overview
The average two finger typist keys in at about 15 words a minute. A competent touch typist would easily achieve over 60 words a minute. Simple arithmetic tells you that someone keyboarding for an hour a day could save between 15 and 20 days (yes, days!) a year simply by increasing from 15 words to 30 words a minute.
This two-day seminar can be held at our City EC2 centres and is for everyone who is frustrated by how long it takes to type an email, letter or report. If you believe that it takes too long to learn to type properly, then this course is for you.
