Starting in the Grantown Hub, courses will be starting in October. Dates and courses to be notified closer to the time, after we have some survey results back.
What We Offer
Regardless of whether you have a burning desire to learn more about the computer, or just want to ask some questions and get a bit of help about some specific topics, we can assist, or find someone that can.
At the moment, its all still being developed, but the initial thought is that the club will meet once a week for 2 hours at most. The meeting will be split between the first hour of a training session of a specific subject, followed by an informal Q&A session to answer any queries you have for specifics or chat with others. We dont guarantee that we can answer every question immediately, but what we don’t know, we can have good go at finding out for you 🙂
The Best way to keep up to date with how the club is progressing is to sign up on our Facebook page. This will be where all the announvcements will be made
Backup all your Files
Are your files backed up? What about all your photos, documents and letters? If your computer went “Bang” would you have lost all your data? We can help make sure you are covered
Software Programs
Want to create a PDF Document? Do you want to use video conferencing with Zoom or Teams? Do you want to know how to crop a photograph? Are you interested in Video editing?
Microsoft Office
The Microsoft Office suite has some seriously powerful software built into it. We can help you understand how the word processing works, or create a formula in Spreadsheets or even create your own Access Database if you you are adventurous.
Learn to get so much more out of your computer
The world of computing is truly enormous, and there is a never ending supply of new technology, which changes on a daily basis. If you are just curious about the technology, or just want to learn some specifics about a certain program, then the computer club is a great way to learn, while making new friends and increasing your confidence.
Dont worry if you know nothing, or you feel embarrased – we all had to learn and we will do our best to give you the confidence to improve and start enjoying it.
We guarantee you will be amazed about what can be done without spending any money.
Do you have computer skills you would like to share?
We welcome any assistance with assisting our members with IT support. If you have the skills and would like to assist, by being able to do a training session of about an hour at one of the club events, we would welcome the input. For a chat, please email us from the link below and we will be in touch. Thanks
