Random Age-Friendly Communities Computers For Seniors


Looking to help out in Clarenville?  There are plenty of volunteer opportunities that can help you get to know people and help you in your career. One such opportunity is a program called COMPUTERS FOR SENIORS.  

This initiative is run by the Random Age-Friendly Communities group and the goal is to train seniors in the use of computers.  Over the past number of years Computer training volunteers have instructed over 150 seniors of Clarenville and the surrounding communities in basic computer usage. 

Random Aged Friendly and its partner, College of the North Atlantic, is currently recruiting resource persons to assist in the delivery of our next class which will run from October 22 to November 21 on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7 – 9 p.m. at Clarenville campus.

The training to be offered to seniors will be very fundamental, so it is not necessary for resource persons to have extensive training in or instructional experience with computers.  As a resource person, you should have a comfort level with basic computer usage and you will be working with a team to assist in facilitating this training.

If you have just one, two, or even ten nights to spare and would like to share your computer knowledge with our seniors in this important community initiative, please contact Brenda Reid at 466-2870.
