Computer Club for Older Adults

IN PERSON, REGISTERED

Welcome to the world of Chromebooks. Chromebooks are a type of computer from Google with a simple design that is great for beginners. This program is for older adults who don’t own a computer and want to get online and learn the basics.

Participants will begin with a 1-on-1 start-up appointment, at the library, prior to the beginning of the program. (Participants will be contacted in May to set up this appointment.)

During the 4 in-person group sessions, we will cover basic skills like using a Chromebook, keyboard and mouse, connecting to the internet, creating a Google account and checking email.

Register online or call 519-886-1310 ext. 129 to speak to a staff member for more information.

This program is presented in collaboration with EnTECH from the University of Waterloo.EnTECH Computer Club is an enthusiastic group of students from the University of Waterloo who aim to improve the lives of older adults living in the Waterloo region through technology.
