Basic Technology Course for 60+

Most of my career I have been working with and in blue chip technology companies. As an IT Program Manager, encountering so many diverse technologies can be overwhelming but as one learns to take one step at a time, a person becomes used to the new technology and we then embrace its benefits and become a real fan for what it can do.
In my social group I am in regular contact with those older than myself who are bright, engaging and active. However when it comes to their iPad, tablet, laptop or smartphone these devices can seem very overwhelming and a sense of pain crosses over their eyes as these devices hold so much promise for them but can be such a massive wall to climb just to do the basics.
So I would like to offer an 8-lesson basic tech course to help Mom and Dad or Grandma and Grandpa to grasp the basics of their own technology. The idea of these classes is for each one to bring to class their preferred technology (smartphone/tablet/laptop) and then to step through the basics of how it works, what it needs to be connected to and what Apps or software is needed.
The course designed by myself is to understand how to use your own technology comfortably and the various applications such as Skype, email, WhatsApp, Zoom, FaceTime, the internet and office explorer files and more.
The first day of the course is an overview and the journey we will take together. This first day is free for you to decide if this is something you would like to take on over the next 8 lessons with no obligation.
I am based in Browns Bay and training will take place in a comfortable homely environment in a classroom style set up to optimise training once we are able to have meetings again. Notes will be provided of each session to take home.
This course will run weekly and is $20 + Gst a lesson and anyone can stop and join at any time. As mentioned above the first lesson is free. There is no need to pay for a full course only pay for the day you attend. Once you have completed the course in full, you will be presented with a certificate of completion of Technology - The Basics. A nice to have if you want to venture to start working again or to show your friends your accomplishment.
This will run during the day on a weekly basis for 1.15mins. If you are interested or would like to sign up a relative, contact me on email: Gavin.tipping@outlook.com

Health and Safety
Health and safety is the top priority and the lessons will run practicing physical distancing from one another.
You will be required to bring your own golf clubs to avoid touching shared surfaces (note if you are looking to purchase golf clubs I can help provide a good rate of $40 per club through the Pro Shop).
