Free computer, clerical and general office training is being offered by Goodwill Industries of Ventura and Santa Barbara counties through the organization’s Oxnard facility, officials say.

Twelve full-time openings are currently available for people who want to learn how to operate a microcomputer and a variety of business software, according to Robert Dyer, unit director.

Dyer said the classes are open-ended with flexible scheduling, but that most students take about 90 days to become proficient with the machines and programs. Also included in the training are proper office organization, filing system techniques, telephone procedures and general business etiquette.
