WELL READ offers a range of other services that require a bright, resourceful and efficient mind.
Project Management
Over the past year, I have worked as a project manager for an interactive education company during the development and launch of a large, multi-strand website. Tasks involved included:
- Liaising with the various teams involved in the project - writers, designers, programmers, financiers and customers.
- 'Bug' testing and reporting
- Editing, proofreading and uploading copy
- Carrying out usability analyses
- Creating and applying various procedural templates and systems
Troubleshooting
Clients often phone up for technical help with various IT issues - hardware or software related. Past examples include:
- How do I stop Word from changing the format of my documents automatically?
- My printer has stopped printing in colour - how can I fix it?
- How do I print address labels from my Access database?
- How can I change my screen resolution?
- How do I link different worksheets in my Excel document?
If I can help, I will happily do so free of charge, if the problem can be solved quickly (say, less than 15 minutes). If not, I can suggest where to go for further assistance.
