Victoria County CAP Sites Association
Not just access...a world of information and services just around the corner!...
Victoria County CAP Sites Association was formed in the fall of 1998 as the umbrella organization for all CAP Sites in Victoria County. VCCAPS helps manage projects and support funds available to the CAP Sites through an Industry Canada Initiative. Currently, 11 CAP Sites throughout the County assist communities and visitors with Internet access, access to information and IT training needs.

Web Optimization Project
The Victoria County CAP Sites Association Web Optimization Project has the broad objectives of:
increasing the skill levels of CAP site staff, youth and volunteers; optimizing
web material for VCCAPS, CAP sites, small businesses, and community organizations
in our area;
making use of GPS technology, Google Earth, Wikipedia, etc.;
producing manuals and training material for future training and to disseminate
to other sites; and increasing usage at the sites for training, broadband usage
and web optimization tools.
These objectives will be achieved through training
with all VCCAPS project personal including youth interns, and our partners,
including volunteers from individual C@P Sites site, small business people; and
community organization members. The overall outcomes achieved will be: the
production of a Web Optimization Training PowerPoint Presentation on CD and/or
the Web; training manuals on the various steps including GPS usage, Google
Earth and other tools, apps, and Wikipedia; the usage of GPS units, servers,
and Web material; people skilled with various new technologies and
applications; and increased C@P Site usage. Please check back here often for
upcoming workshops and available training resources.
