2012 Computer Classes

It's time for us to start thinking about what computer classes we should schedule for the new year and we'd like your input.

We have a poll on the sidebar of our blog if you'd like to give us an idea of what you'd like to see taught. You may choose as many topics as you'd like.

If there's anything you're interested seeing on our list of classes that is not currently there, please put your suggestion in a comment to this post.  We'd love to hear from you!

Beginning E-Mail is designed for those who do not yet have an e-mail account but would like one. Students should already have a basic knowledge of how to use a computer and the Internet.

Those who already have an e-mail account, but do not know how to use it could also benefit from this class. Students who already have an e-mail account need to bring their user name and password for that account.

Creating an e-mail account, sending and receiving messages, deleting e-mail, opening/downloading attachments, sending attachments, and printing, logging in and logging out.
