Trainer/Co-Trainer

Computer Trainers and Co-Trainers provide free training sessions on the use of PC's, the Internet and E-Mail. Classes are one time, usually 2 hour sessions that cover many of the basic concepts in beginning the adventure of Internet and computer use.

Trainers and co-trainers will possess the following qualities and skills:

• Be capable of passing their skills on to the people they train.
• Love to watch and help people learn.
• Understand how to use the Internet.
• Attend one train-the-trainer session, and be available for other training sessions.
