Kerri,
I cannot really speak to the Windows Live issue because I am not a
technology person by any stretch of the imagination.

What specific problems, if you don't mind my asking, is your friend having
at college? The reason I ask is because it will give a better understanding
as to whether the issues are, forgive me, "typical" of college or if the
lack of training really is the key issue.

If she does decide it is the lack of training that is the issue then it
would make sense to me for her to go back to a center if there is no other
way she can get the training, experience, she needs. She needs to weigh the
pros and cons for herself (with your guidance perhaps) about what would be
best. Unless she goes in the summer, I assume she would be taking off time
from college to do this and that can cause other obstacles as well.

I feel like I've asked more questions than provided helpful insight, but I
hope this at least starts some thinking.
