Area Adults Participate in Lenovo Funded Computer Basics Course


Technology is advancing at a rapid pace, and an understanding of computer basics is invaluable. Over 75% of recently surveyed individuals reported that after completing Kramden’s Computer Basics classes, they felt confident using a computer.

This month, another group of local adults gathered in Kramden’s Lenovo Learning Lab to take advantage of 8 hours of free basic digital literacy training. Whether students were new to the computer or just wanting to brush up on fundamentals, participants learned valuable information they could utilize every day at home or in the workplace.

Students practiced holding and moving a mouse, learned how to save and share documents, and for those who didn’t have an existing email address, even set up an email account.

Each class participant will receive a free refurbished laptop computer with one year of technical support to complement their training thanks to funding from the Lenovo Foundation.
