Business Presentation -- PowerPoint Business Presentation and Proposal -- Distance Learning Company In today's increasingly competitive marketplace, all individuals are looking to improve their knowledge of Informational Technology. Particularly given the state of today's still sputtering economic recovery, young job-seekers are becoming more and more concerned about keeping abreast of the increasingly complex and ever-expanding opportunities provided by the World Wide Web, and to diversify as well as solidify their range of IT knowledge.

Even individuals from very prestigious liberal art schools and universities whom might be well-grounded in economic principles and logical thinking, and know how to deconstruct a spreadsheet or a sonnet, often do not have the specific technical knowledge that they desire and require to deploy themselves effectively as job hunting candidates in the modern, competitive workplace.

While looking to better their credentials and while still maintaining an active job search, what better medium is there than the World Wide Web to help such candidates become more proficient in the technological skills they wish to master? Thus, the objective of this particular proposed website would be two-fold. Firstly, by using its offered tutorials, individuals could obtain distance certification in a variety of computer programming tools, from web design, to mastering the finer arts of Excel.

By creating a highly reputable distance-learning environment, geared towards IT, individuals making use of this form of distance learning could simultaneously improve their resumes while still holding down full time jobs, and use the medium that they were attempting to master in a hands-on fashion.

How is this different from merely using tutorials proffered by software companies, one might ask, or gaining a cursory familiarity of Linux on one's own? First of all, the website through which certification would be obtained would require individuals to make use of graded tutorials and weekly quizzes.

Secondly, at the end of the course, after proceeding through structured tutorials and a series of weekly exams, individual seeking certification would then submit a project on the IT, programming language, or any other subject they were studying, such as Power Point, for example, that they wished to obtain official certification in. This type of hands-on learning would guarantee that the individuals using the website had gained a real and secure way of deploying the technology, rather than a mere cursory understanding of it as one does with a tutorial.

After submitting the project, the project would then be graded by a tutor employed by the website, and a final grade and level of certification would be given to the candidate.

The candidate could then list the level of certification obtained, and the grade obtained, upon a resume, as concrete evidence of his or her mastery of a particular computer-based skill or programming language that would assure individuals scanning his or her resume that this job seeker was not merely 'familiar with' or 'proficient with' a certain topic, but had mastered the basics and had obtained a level of quality, creativity, and skill commensurate with a numerical grade.

Certification would place the candidate a cut above those whom merely use such vague terms as 'familiarity' on their resumes. The audience of this product is clear -- the insecure job seekers of today and tomorrow. The objectives of the proposal are clear, to make sure that the prospective audience realizes that.
