Pre-conference Workshops
at the University of Jos

 


   
Wireless Networking
  This two-day workshop will feature presentations on wireless networking, both local area networking and wide area (building-to-building) networking.  It will include a hands-on demonstration of wireless technology using new equipment from 3Com.
   
Designing Databases for the World Wide Web
  Using Microsoft FrontPage and Microsoft Access, we demonstrate how to easily set up Web-based data entry and reports.  Using a Web server with FrontPage extensions, we’ll show how even beginning users can build database interfaces and “upsize” them to SQL.
   
Computer Repair and Maintenance
  In this hands-on workshop, students will learn the basics of PC repair and maintenance. In the first part of the course, students will learn about the major hardware components of a PC by completely disassembling and then reassembling a PC. Students will then learn techniques for troubleshooting common hardware related problems. Students will also learn how to prepare a new PC and install the operating system.
