ALISON, based in beautiful Co. Galway, are providing free online skills training in several areas including the full ECDL syllabus. Two options are provided - Microsoft Office 2000 or Microsoft Office 2003.ALISON also provide courses for each of the individual Office components including Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint. Unfortunately, no reference to OpenOffice yet! Several Health and Safety courses are also offered by ALISON.
Their mission is to "enable anyone, anywhere, to educate themselves for free via interactive self-paced multimedia". Further, it is their stated belief "that through ALISON, the cost of access to high quality education can be removed" and that "all certifiable or standards-based learning for every subject can be made available for free online".
First came across this site thanks to a reference on Zaid's blog, which has lots of other interesting posts regarding free resources.
