When it is
concerned about
excel then it helps
in easy calculation
when the data is
very much big.
Most of the
organization use
excel for
calculation, so
computer teach
them so that they

can implement in
the future. Other
than that when
any document is
being created, it is
being made on the
doc so this will
also help the
students in the
future. When it is
concerned about
the staff and
teachers, they will
also able to learn
different things
regarding the
computer and use
them in the daily
activities. On the
other hand, when
the students will
learn, they will try
to implement it in
their house, so
parents also start
learning the
computers.
