The Tech Savvy Seniors program held at the City of Canada Bay Libraries offers free technology training sessions for senior residents. In October, there will be sessions run in Greek at Concord Library.
The aim of the program is to increase digital inclusion and access to information and online services for senior citizens, while reducing social isolation and improving awareness around online fraud.
“The City of Canada Bay is a diverse community and we want everyone to be able to benefit from being online and connected, regardless of their age and linguistic background,” City of Canada Bay Mayor, Angelo Tsirekas, said.
In October, Tech Savvy Seniors workshops will be in Greek. These training sessions will cover the use of computers, tablets, smartphones, and online applications such as email and social media, as well as online shopping and cyber security.
Tech Savvy Seniors is co-funded by the NSW Government and Telstra.
