Seniors' basic digital device skills:

In February, March, and April, SoS Digital Support will work with the Bega Valley Shire Library to conduct a series of digital beginner courses at their Bermagui Library. We'll walk you through the basics of using an iPhone, Tablet, or Smartphone and go through the fundamentals of browsing the internet.

• Mobile smartphones: 20th Feb & 20th March 10:00 to12:00pm
• Tablets & iPads (hand held computers): 6th March & 3rd April 10:00 to12:00pm
• Pick one or do them all!

NOTE: The courses are free and available to seniors 50 and over and bookings are essential as numbers will be limited.

Refreshments will be provided.

Julie Novotny, the president of SoS, suggests that Bega Valley residents who want to move into the digital world should look at attending these workshops. She feels that these workshops are one of the best places for beginners to learn the fundamentals of using a digital device at their own pace.

SoS Digital Support is a newly formed not-for-profit group in the Bega Valley Shire dedicated to assisting seniors aged 50 and older to Get Connected and Stay Connected. We are able to offer this event for free thanks to the support of the Bega Valley Shire Library.

Be Connected:

We will be utilising the Be Connected website tutorials, which are part of an Australian Government program aimed at increasing the confidence, skills, and online safety of older Australians when using digital technology. Good Things Foundation works in collaboration with the eSafety Commissioner and the Department of Social Services to deliver this program across Australia.
