Computer Trainers

Aspiring computer trainers can gain useful experience by participating in internships in the training department of a large corporation or software vendor.

To be a successful computer trainer, you need to be an extrovert, and a good sense of humor is essential along with an energetic personality. As a trainer, you will have to be ready to teach any class in your repertoire at any time, so you have to be adaptable and flexible to handle that uncertainty. Other important traits include the ability to explain complicated concepts to people with limited technical knowledge, patience, organizational and leadership skills, and a willingness to continue to learn throughout your career.
