Basic Computer Skill
About This Course
As a working professional, it’s important to have a solid foundation of basic computer skills. Depending on your industry and employer, the computer skills you need will greatly vary. Understanding the various types of basic computer skills will help you to better understand what skills may be required for your field. In this article, we define the various types of basic computer skills, how to improve them and how to include them on your resume.
Basic computer skills refer to your ability to perform fundamental tasks on a computer. This can include understanding certain software, applications, programs, tools and more. Computer skills fall into two categories: software and hardware. Hardware refers to the computer’s operation, whereas software involves the use of various programs and applications.
Many jobs require fundamental computer skills to perform well for that particular job. While basic computer skills include knowing how to type, understanding social media and having general web skills, there are several more to consider, such as:
-
Productivity software
-
Operating systems
-
Presentation software
-
Digital marketing
-
Computer programming

But with proper training, these problems can be overcome very easily. And to solve this problem, a project of Alo Bhuban Trust (Alo-BT), PalliPathshala has started a 6-month Basic Computer Skill course.
