PRESS RELEASE
Dakota Warriors (owned by Cornerstone Consulting Sdn. Bhd.) and Power Success Marketing Sdn. Bhd., jointly agreed to provide introductory internet courses to individuals age 50 and above. Dakota Warriors (www.dakotawarriors.com) is a global provider of consulting, training and coaching services. Power Success Marketing (www.powersuccessmarketing.com), is a global internet marketing company which provides training and internet solutions.
The program called Golden Navigator Program was initiated by Dr. Annie Lim, CEO of Dakota Warriors and pioneer of internet in Malaysia. Dr. Annie Lim was inspired by her mother, now age 58, whom recently learned to use the internet and found that her mother’s knowledge and life has been enhanced and enriched so much by the internet.
Dr. Annie Lim together with Zach, her husband, business partner and an internet guru himself, then got together with DeChen, CEO of Power Success Marketing, a well-known internet guru in ASIA, and came up with three short courses.
“When Dr. Annie Lim came to me with the idea, and told me that she wanted to have this program as a Community Service, I love it immediately. This is a great way for us to give back to our community and especially to those who have paved the way for the current and new generations” DeChen Lau
“We came up with program because we realized many older people would like to learn how to use the computer and browse the internet but don’t know where to learn. It is difficult for them to learn from their children. Even with my own experience, my parents have been asking me to show them and most of time, I have been telling them I am busy with work.” Zach Ho
“Our goal is to educate these individuals, increase their knowledge and skills, to improve communications among family members and friends, and ultimately, to improve the lifestyle of these individuals and perhaps they can even venture into some business in the internet.” Dr. Annie Lim
The introductory internet program is designed for beginners. It will only cost RM150. It is a full day program teaching basic computer usage, internet surfing and search, email and online chats.
Each graduate leaves with a personal email account used primarily to communicate with family and friends, and able to surf the internet for information.
The classes are open to the public, and each session will accommodate about 50 people.
Subsequently, they may attend a 1 full day program called Internet Basics, whereby they will learn how to use online video chat, blogs, etc.
And if they are interested to create a business in the internet, there will a one day course, whereby they learn how to setup a website and do internet marketing using Blog.
