In response to continuing demand, Computers on Wheels is back on the road for a fourth consecutive season. With more than 100 courses booked to date by Alberta Agriculture district offices across the province, over 1,000 people will have the opportunity to learn more about computers and their applications in agriculture. "Computers on Wheels is designed to meet the challenge of providing computer courses in any part of the province," says J. Wilson Loree, head of Alberta Agriculture's farm business management branch and chairman of the co-ordinating committee. In the original project, two specially equipped vans transported portable computers and instructors to nearly 300 community halls and classrooms across Alberta. Initially set up as a three-year project involving Alberta Agriculture, IBM Canada Ltd. and the University of Alberta, Computers on Wheels has successfully met its mandate to investigate new ways of extending knowledge about computers to adults in rural Alberta. "Although the three-year project has been completed, Alberta Agriculture will continue to provide leadership in serving the farming public by providing the Computers on Wheels courses," says Loree. He says in order to accommodate the increased demand for courses, Alberta's four agricultural colleges, in co-operation with Alberta Career Development and Employment, will participate with Alberta Agriculture in delivering this year's Computers on Wheels courses.
