SF Connected: Schedule of Classes 2023

This 5-week course covers everything you need to know about using a tablet. Some topics covered are using the internet, connecting to the Wi-Fi, setting up a Gmail account, operating systems, home screens, applications, and phishing emails and scams. The instructors take a few minutes every session to field questions about the use of the device or any advanced features that the clients might be interested in learning more about. At the end of the five weeks, all participants receive their new free tablet, a brand new case for it, and a certificate of completion.

Upon completion of the tablet training, the graduated clients can enroll in typing basics session, which is a 2-hour long course. Using an interactive online tool, the participants can learn to type as the module takes them through different levels of typing (easy to advanced). It also allows the participants to practice their typing skills, including punctuation keys and shortcuts. Everybody who completes this typing session receives a Bluetooth keyboard that can be connected to their smartphones or tablets and a certificate of completion.

  We also offer computer training sessions on many topics, including MS Office Suite, email management, using search engines, printing documents, and other basic computer skills. These computer training sessions can be arranged one-on-one or with a group. This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about technology or working on vocational and technical skills. All eligible SF Connected clients can schedule an appointment with the digital literacy coach throughout the week.
