The Helper Company's Vision:

The Helper Company consists of two units – MySoftwareHelper (The Source for Software Training Solutions) and MyClassroomHelper (Linking Teachers, Students, and Parents). They both share the same goal – to help facilitate and enable a positive learning environment. Our programs have been used to train thousands of students in over 40 High Schools, Community and Technical Colleges, and Universities. The same programs have also been deployed training Washington State employees, unemployed job seekers, as well as the Boeing Company. We believe that all students, young or adult, need to be more engaged in the learning process and held accountable for the outcome. Each division of The Helper Company facilitates that, but in a slightly different way.

MySoftwareHelper provides media-rich learning content where students see the steps, hear an explanation, and perform the tasks. We specialize in quality technology training that utilizes an interactive video or flash interface. Assessment tests track progress along the way and hold students accountable.

MyClassroomHelper completes the learning process by allowing students to write daily online Journals and establish portfolios of their “best work”. Teachers, students, and parents can communicate with each other in a safe environment that fosters educational and personal growth.
