Senior Computer Literacy Program

Most of us take our skills for granted when it comes to technology. We move effortlessly between applications and multiple devices. We install new software, set up numerous accounts, and easily clear technical hurdles that come our way. Unfortunately, that picture isn’t the norm for many older adults.  That is why Our Computer Literacy Program for seniors is there to impower and educate seniors in our digitally dependent world.

We offer well-rounded courses dedicated to teaching the basics of using technology so seniors can become comfortable with technology and gain personal freedom.
