Teaming for Technology Colorado

T4T volunteer, Jeff Steel, brings a decade of technology experience to T4T and the Colorado nonprofit community. As one of T4T's most popular instructors, Jeff has taught classes ranging from MS Excel to an Introduction to Office 2007.

If you are an MS Office user in Colorado Springs and, like many of us, know just enough to get into trouble, then we'd like to introduce you to some of the brilliant volunteers at our software training program. Tricia Haas is one of our generous volunteers who are experts in their fields and willing to share their knowledge and skill sets with us.

Teaming for Technology Colorado is partnering with Goodwill Industries International, Inc. to provide an intensive three-hour MS PowerPoint training session to Goodwill Industries Marketing and Communications Directors during their Colorado Springs conference in late July.

Last week the T4T team had the opportunity to attend the annual Nonprofit Technology Conference sponsored by NTEN. Held in New Orleans, the conference brought together over one thousand nonprofit IT professionals, including many "accidental techies" like myself. From David Pogue's opening talk to the discussion led by Editor-in-Chief of LouisianaRebuilds to the myriad breakout sessions over two full days, one thing was very clear: nonprofits need technology.

If you are one of the many nonprofit employees whose office is transitioning to the MS Office 2007 Suite, you’ll be glad to know T4T volunteer Debbie Dalrymple.

T4T is proud to announce the continuation of our training partnership with the Front Range Community College Institute for Community & Professional Development.

T4T is pleased to welcome back nine of our seasoned volunteers. Both Debbie Dalrymple and Steve Kessler will continue teaching classes in Denver and Boulder. Our returning Colorado Springs volunteer team includes:

Greetings from T4T,

Did you stick with your New Year's Resolution? Either way, here is one that we at T4T can help you with: learn a new software program, or better yet, learn a new tip or trick in that software program that you use every day.
