INFORMATION

COMPUTER BOX began in 1987. Our foundations are built on a simple principle. We believe that once people have confidence, they begin to take control of their own learning.

At the start we billed ourselves as Brighton’s original Macintosh trainers. We taught design graduates how to work with Quark and Photoshop. A digital generation down the line, we now work with Web 2.0 publishing platform courses that we are beginning to skype teach across the world.

Over the years we have taught people from some of the largest companies in the country to some of the best new creative companies in Sussex…All the courses are taught one-to-one. One student, one tutor. It’s a unique way to study and a unique way to learn….Welcome to Computer Box, 23 years teaching creative professionals across Sussex and we’ve only just begun…
MANIFESTO
TECHNOLOGY HAS radicalised all our working lives. Companies are smaller. People have to manage tasks in different ways. People need new skills and a new kind of toolbox for the 21st century…..more
