included in a FREE internet starter session
Just the basics.
Getting started on a PC, accessing the internet, looking at websites
and using search engines. The exact details and length of the session
is up to you.
Setting up an email account is also useful –
it incentivises new users to return and check their mail –
giving you the chance to suggest further training!
