Mac Training

The Grey Lynn sessions
All of the Grey Lynn sessions last one hour minimum. They take place at Grey Lynn Community Centre, 510 Richmond Rd Grey Lynn, Auckland, with ample parking close to the North Western Motorway (Western Springs turnoff). They take place upstairs (head to the right) in the Balcony Room, beginning 7:30pm.
The sessions are inclusive and friendly, and discussion is open.
For just $40 per person per session ($30 per person per session for students and beneficiaries) you get in-depth training from introductory to Mac OS X tips and power tricks, covering photography, music, multimedia, the iApps and more.
Pay for four sessions at once for a 10% discount – that comes to $144 instead of $160 (or $108 for beneficiaries instead of $120). All prices include GST.
Do them all or pick your topic.
[The current series for 2010 has finished and no more are planned until further notice]

One-to-one training
I regularly visit clients within a 30-minute drive of the Auckland CBD, helping kick-start new-to- Mac users, to iron out problems and to demystify your Mac life, or to take you to the next level. The charge is $85 per hour inc GST, but the first session is 1.5 hours for the same price.
