Hello,

I am looking for a "Keyboarding Basics" online tutorial.

I work in the Construction industry and my company recently implemented an ERP system. Several of our field employees, who are not familiar with how to type, will be using the new software and want to improve their typing skills.

I am not looking for anything that involves much cost. When I did a simple "Google" search, I found a lot of programs to choose from and was curious if anyone has had a good experience with a particular program.

I have always found Mavis Beacon to be very user friendly and cost effective.

My students use 'Typing of the Dead' by Sega. You learn typing while ridding the world of zombies. Bit violent. I also see a lot of typing programs on CNET.com
