If you offered a computer training program, how would you get potential students?

This would be for a new program for a program not usually available in the classroom setting. I have posted ads, and gotten some calls but no one has enrolled, they all seem positive but they dont follow through. I dont want to be pushy and call everyday like a collector! What other suggestions do you all have?
U can advertise for free on Craigslist.com!. Before you start advertising, you have to have a curriculum and all that to meet the needs of students.
I would make up some flyers and personally distribute them at the public library. Most library’s have computers/terminals and internet equipped now and full of people with spare time that are not very computer savvy. If they were, they would probably be home glued to a pc.
Greet them in person and try to be charismatic, understanding and patient. They may come to associate those qualities with the program. Make them comfortable with you and the will feel like the can be comfortable enough to learn and benefit from the program. Just a thought….
