The work shop has indeed proved very useful for me personally and to my institute as well. Though I knew things like word, excel, power point and blog etc. I was really not aware about its various tools and applications. The work shop has indeed opened my eyes regarding the utility of technology for NGO's. It will be my endeavour to transfer this knowledge or share it with my other co workers.

As I am working as project manager and also studying ‘Master of International health’ So this workshop is really helpful for me as personal level with my study and as organisational level in producing budget, progress report, monthly, quarterly, or yearly report. For my assignment I use 2-3 days for making contents, header, footer etc. but now it will probably done in few minutes. Ashutosh is really excellent teacher and he presents all the aspect well.

Connect IT workshop conducted by NASSCOM Foundation is really a helpful step taken towards the improvement of NGOs. There are many NGOs from rural areas which we can connect with. Even the remotest organisation will be able to communicate with us.

This workshop has certainly been helpful. It has addressed many gaps in my knowledge and skills. The curriculum has very well thought and designed

The lab sessions were extremely helpful. The duration of the lab sessions were perfect. I liked the openness of the facilitator. He was always there, ready with a helping hand, moving from team to team, fielding queries and open to suggestions.

I will definitely what I’ve learnt in my organization. I look forward to teaching people these applications. I now know what elements need to be included in our annual reports and projects. I’ve become open about social networking and professional networking.

Ruth D'Costa 
SAATHI, Mumbai 
The connect it workshop has been very helpful for me. My knowledge has been deepened. Certain mental blocks that I fostered have are now nor there any more. One of the things I am very thankful for being taught is the difference between websites, wiki’s, Blogs, etc. Also, the trainer has a way of assuring the class that all of the content is very simple once you understand it. I hope to run the same content in SAATHI beginning with the administration team where it is much required. Other than that, it should become easier to format reports and make our website more interesting.
