Crystal’s Computer University @ Sea Expands

September 29, 2009 on 11:28 am | In Cruise Boats | Comments Off

Crystal Cruises is expanding its Computer University@Sea programming with the new Windows 7 operating system and more options for college credit during the World Cruise. This fall, the line will offer classes based on Microsoft’s Windows 7 on both ships — a month before the operating system will be available to the public. Additionally, guests aboard Crystal Serenity’s 2010 World Cruise will be able to earn three transferable college credits for various computer courses, and can learn using two different operating systems, Microsoft and Apple.

The Windows 7 classes will be taught by Computer University@Sea instructors and cover basic computing and tips for mastering the operating system and maximizing ease and efficiency.

The collegiate courses aboard the World Cruise, taught by an instructor from Del Mar College, include components of the system unit, computer storage devices, database management and privacy and ethics. Every Crystal cruise offers complimentary instruction on the Windows 7 operating system, email, website design, digital video editing, digital camera orientation, Photoshop, and surfing the Web.

Other topics include Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, greeting and business card design, and financial research tools and spreadsheet preparation.

Private instruction is also available.

There is a nominal fee for those wishing to earn collegiate credit. The 108-day 2010 World Cruise departs Miami on Jan. 11 and visits such destinations as South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman and Iran, among more than 40 ports in 37 countries.
