Training Gives New Role for Old Computers

Neil Wintrip, of Exeter, originally came up with the idea for the learning centre in May 2000 & in May 2005 he became a UnLtd Millennium Award Winner.

The non-profit making center, called the A1 Positive Recycling Project Center It will offer NVQ computer courses, diagnostic workshops and other IT-based training to anyone over the age of 15.

It will also act as a computer recycling centre, breaking down old machines and rebuilding “new” ones.

Mr Wintrip said: “Computer systems are not a luxury item, but a valuable tool, yet people are being excluded because of their financial constraints.

“This innovative project helps both businesses and the local community.

I want computers and computing to be more accessible, as having basic PC skills can improve people’s prospects hugely. “We will offer a new kind of hands-on-practical-training, where people can pick up vital work experience while learning, making them more qualified than the average school leaver.”

Mr Wintrip also believes his project offers a viable solution to problems that may arise from a recently introduced European Parliament directive – the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) directive. The directive means that businesses with either electrical or electronic waste cannot dispose of it in landfill.

This type of waste has to be handled by a recycling company.

Mr Wintrip said: “The aim is to collect unwanted computer equipment, and reuse it to train local people from the community with a short PC training programme.”

Hi, My name is Mark Harrison and I know nothing about all this clever Microsoft stuff, except that I do understand that these tools can do some pretty remarkable things in the right hands. I am looking for a few pairs of the right hands to make sense of a project I am working on in the area of energy consumption (carbon footprint reduction).

If I had a dollar/pound for every site application that allowed me to calculate my energy consumption come carbon footprint I'd be very rich, the trouble is that these are only used by a very small percentage of consumers, often the bill payer who has a bit of an incentive. In a home or small work situation it is the collective lifestyle of all the residents influences the energy consumption and if one or two people don't play ball the wheels soon fall off the energy efficiency drive.

I think I have an idea and I have researched a lot of the applications, data sources, tools and platforms available and as I am market led can see who this would sell to and by which channels. Is there anyone out there in the network who is remotely interested in this area? Please get in touch if you can, Thank you!
