SPONSORED STORY – Technology has started to play an important part in our everyday lives. The opportunities to access information, connect with others and indulge in hobbies are unlimited, but only if you know how to use the technology.
Digital technology is a great way to stay connected and access a range of information and services.
With that in mind South Australian organisation Catalyst Foundation (formerly Seniors Information Service) has developed a series of training courses, designed especially for those who would like to know more about the Internet, computers, tablets and mobile devices.
Within this series, Catalyst Foundation offers a variety of informative technology training opportunities to the community, including how to use tablets (iPads/Android), smartphones and computers.
Digital technology is a great way to stay connected with family and friends near or far, and access a range of information and services. Experienced volunteers will guide you through it all step by step, no matter what device you prefer to use.
