Computer Education - Free of Cost ... for everyone at Manipur
Payel Mukherjee *
Spending thousands of rupees to learn computers and software is a history!
An MHRD Govt. of India project, 'Spoken Tutorial' makes it possible for everybody to learn software, without paying a single rupee. Learners need not travel, need no special trainer, no teachers etc.
This project is using a magical audio-video teaching tool, viz, Spoken Tutorials, which are proven to be user-friendly and highly conducive for self-learning. The learning materials for this training will be offered from IIT Bombay.
The most exciting part is, not only the students will gain knowledge for free, they will be awarded certificates after an online exam, which would be of immense value during placements or promotions.
Starting from training on Basic IT Skills for school students, such as LibreOffice (Open Source alternative of MS Office- Word, Exel, Powerpoint), there is a variety of software for college students, such as Linux, C++, Java, PHP & MySQL and so on.
All the software trained are Free & Open Source, hence no expenses on buying software linenses or no threats of using pirated versions of software.
Every software is downloadble from the Internet for Free and training is also available through Spoken Tutorials for Free!
School & College Students, Teachers, Entrepreneurs ... everybody from Manipur are welcome to take the facility of this training.

Message from Payel Mukherjee
I'm writing from IIT Bombay. We are working on a project known as Spoken Tutorial, wherein we are offering training on Basics of Computer and Software to everyone, completely Free of Cost. The mentioned project is funded by MHRD, Govt. of India.
The attached article is a brief on the training programme. The article does not have 1000 words, as its purpose is to create awareness of the training facility to everyone at Manipur. A long article might lead to confusion.
We are working for the National Mission on Education to spread IT Literacy in India, specially in Manipur. Kindly publish the attached article along with the photo, so that the Manipuris can take the facility of FREE COMPUTER EDUCATION.
