Free technology classes for people aged fifty and over to learn about all aspects of the internet and digital devices are now available at Ettalong Diggers, Central Coast Leagues Club, and through the Mangrove Mountain Computer Club.

The program, supported by the Good Things Foundation and Be Connected, an Australian Government initiative, provides workshops that teach you how to use and get the most out of your smartphone, tablet, iPad, or laptop.

The community is encouraged to participate and take advantage of the learning opportunities available.

Quotes attributable to Federal Member for Robertson, Dr Gordon Reid MP:

“The Federal Labor Government understands that technology is increasingly becoming more and more integral in our everyday lives.

“It is imperative then that everyone in our community feels confident to use technology and get the most out of it.

“The Federal Labor Government is supporting several free technology classes for people aged fifty and up to learn about how to use the internet and technology devices, like smartphones, tablets, iPads, laptops, and more.

“I encourage our community to take advantage of the opportunities available and get along to one of the many workshops available across the region”, Dr Reid said.

The free technology classes take place on every second and fourth Tuesday of each month at Ettalong Diggers from 10am, and the first and third Thursdays each month at Central Coast Leagues Club from 10:30am, and on the fourth Thursday of each month at the Mangrove Mountain Computer Club from 9:30am.
