The North Dandenong Neighbourhood House will be running a Get Online Week event for participants aged 50 and over.
The session will be led by a facilitator who will teach practical digital skills that can help seniors in their everyday lives.
As Dandenong has many older people from culturally diverse backgrounds who have limited English and digital skills, this session will help them become more confident using technology in their everyday lives.
A facilitator will guide participants through practical digital skills using your own mobile phones.
You will learn:
- How to use Google Translate to communicate with people who speak different languages
- Google Maps for travel and directions
- myGov to access important government services
- How to stay safe online, including tips for recognising scams and protecting personal information
The event will be held in a fun and relaxed environment over morning tea, providing opportunities for learning, social connection, and building confidence in using digital technology.
Wednesday 21 October, 10.30am-12pm
