Course 01 of 13
Intro to Computer
Get confident with a computer, starting from the very basics. If you have never really used a computer, or only use one nervously, this is where to start. You build the everyday skills that every other digital skill depends on.
In plain words
Think of it as learning to drive before you choose where to go.

A computer is a tool, like a car or a sewing machine. Until you are comfortable with the basics, everything else feels hard. This course removes that fear.
You learn how to switch between programs, save and find your work, type properly, use the internet and email, and write a document or a simple spreadsheet. Nothing is assumed. If you have never touched a laptop, you are exactly who it is for.
Where this skill is used
- Every office, school and business
- Applying for jobs and admissions online
- Any other tech course you take afterwards
