How to setup a TPA Mobile Computer Lab in your area.

Choose from: MacOS X, Quark, Photoshop, Pagemaker, InDesign, Acrobat, Dreamweaver.

TPA Mobile Computer Lab is FREE to all attendee's and the host if the event is attended by at least 3 member newspapers. However if the 3 member newspapers do not attend a fee of $450 per class will be charged to the host newspaper.

We want to encourage the host to get other newspapers in the area to attend and not make this a private computer training class.

The Computer Mobile Lab is available to any member newspaper willing to host a set of one day (Photoshop & InDesign classes must be a full day). Classes can be any subject currently offered by the TPA computer lab. Our preference is two days of training back to back (M-F).

Requirements for Mobile Computer Lab Hosts.

  • Have a large room with tables and chairs for at least 10 people (all facing the front of the room).
  • Organize and promote the event to TPA member newspapers in your general area.

The Mobile Lab consists of:

  • Ten MacOS 10.9.2 Intel MacBooks which dual boot to Windows 7.
  • One Instructor with Intel MacBook Pro (with dual boot) and Projector.

Classes are "first come first served" with only a limited number of days per month.
