What software or tutorials should we use for basic computer skills classes at church?

Our church is considering offering a basic computer skills class (MS Word, MS Excel, MS Powerpoint) using some donated computers/software. We have a few single parents in our neighborhood that have expressed interest. I could also see some of our older members participating. I am curious if any other church has done this and I'm looking for suggestions on software/tutorials that could be used. Thanks.

I don't know about software/tutorials but I did learn about some free training that is available on-line from www.siouxhudsonliteracy.com (Sioux Hudson Literacy Council) 1-866-550-0697 I learned this from the Employment Resource Centre at the Community Support Centre of Haldimand-Norfolk (Ontario). Courses are offered re email, facebook, blogging, Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and several Self Management/Self Directioons courses such as: Self Confidence & Self Esteem, Self Defeating Behaviours, Communications, Time Management...etc. You do have to register ahead for certain time slots (which are limited) but it is free.
St. Leonard's Community Services - will help with computer skills by appointment - and they might have advise about how to offer your own program. Their Caledonia # (905) 765-6745, Hagersville 905 768-0111
