Basic Computer Skills - Sacred Heart Hall - Adult Learning

About this course

Do you ever feel left behind in today’s digital world?

For adult learners with little or no computer experience, it offers step-by-step guidance in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Throughout the session, you’ll develop essential computer skills at your own pace, with plenty of hands-on practice and encouragement from an experienced tutor. You’ll learn how to use a mouse and keyboard, create and organise work, and use the internet with confidence.

No previous experience is necessary, just bring your curiosity and a willingness to learn. Laptops and mice will be provided for use.

This session, for adults, is funded by the UK Government through the Shared Prosperity Fund.
