Employee new to industry

Hey all, I have a question about educating a new employee who is not a computer person at all. We're a small consulting company that does LAN/WAN design and implementation (a Microsoft/Cisco/Dell shop). We recently hired someone new to be an office manager/service coordinator. She is very smart and has good customer service skills, but is new to the computer game. I'm having a hard time finding good beginner's resources to even the terminology used in our line of business, let alone resources that explain a little more about computer networking and security. This person does not need to become a technical guru at all, but needs to be able to understand what the engineers are doing when they go out into the field. I've done a few google searches but can't find what I'm looking for. Anyone out there know of any links or perhaps have some advice to offer based on experience with breaking someone into this field? Thanks! --------------------------------------------------- Kris Wingard Network Engineer Synergistic Networks, Inc. 7 South Main Street Suite 217 Wilkes-Barre, PA 18701 Phone: 570.408.9888 Fax: 570.408.9889 Email: kwingard () synergisticusa com Web: www.synergisticusa.com ---------------------------------------------------
