Digital Literacy for Education & Employment Success

May 11, 2023, 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Digital Literacy for Education & Employment Success

At Sinneave, we are passionate about providing practical strategies and tools for skill-building so autistic & neurodiverse youth and adults can thrive in their everyday lives.

In this session, we’ll focus on digital literacy and basic computer skills that will enhance both education and employment success. Attendees will have an opportunity to learn about the Microsoft Office suite of tools–primarily Word, Excel and PowerPoint–listen, observe, ask questions and practice using the software, learning the basic of each tool.

*Because participants require a computer with the necessary software, this session is in-person only.

Join us Thursday, May 11, 2023 from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m. at The Ability Hub (300, 3820 24th Avenue NW)

This one-hour Exploration Session is free but you do need to register, as we are limited in the number of computers we can provide participants.

If you have your own laptop or tablet loaded with a version of Microsoft Office 2013 or later, you are welcome to bring your own! (Don’t forget to update your software and bring your charger!)
