Behind every task an employee performs on a computer — sending an email, running a report, backing up files — sits a specific category of software doing the work. Picking the wrong type, or not understanding how the different categories interact, is a common source of slowdowns in offices that rely heavily on technology. This Arab British Fellowship Training Academy course gives participants a working map of computer software: what each type does, how it relates to the physical hardware it runs on, and why organizations need staff who can tell the difference.

Software itself is simply data and instructions — distinct from the physical hardware of the machine — but it has grown enormously in scope since companies first began writing it. As computers spread into nearly every function of business, software split into distinct families: some manage the system itself, some develop new capabilities, and some simply help end users get their work done. Recognizing which family a given program belongs to is what allows IT teams and managers to make sound decisions about the tools their organization depends on.
