    Digital Technology support for people 50+

    We can help you to learn more about your digital device.

    You can come to sessions at Cobram Community House.

    If you would like to learn at your own pace we can help you enrol into the Be Connected program where you can then select some of the free online courses on everything from how to access the internet, make video calls or set up your device. The choice is yours.

    Digital Mentor Program

    Digital mentors have the valuable role of supporting people to learn new digital skills.
    Working in partnership with the learner, a digital mentor listens for and creates teachable moments. The overall aim is to help learners feel more confident when using digital technology so they can feel more confident and empowered. We have a FREE course to train digital mentors and you don’t need to be an IT expert to participate, you just need a willingness to learn how to support people to get online and use digital devices.

    Talk to us about upcoming training!
