6.24.2022 CCACC and City of Gaithersburg partner for Technology Training for seniors in the City
Welcome to join the Chinese Culture and Community Service Center Inc. (CCACC) Senior Technology Training session sponsored by CCACC and the City of Gaithersburg.
COVID-19 pandemic did make all of our lives change from familiar in-person activities to virtual safety. To assist our seniors in staying connected with friends and families at home like before the pandemic, CCACC organized the adults and youth volunteers about technology support for seniors who were quarantined at home alone since COVID-19. We did help more than 1000 seniors to learn technology virtually. Seniors utilize the technology devices to connect with friends and family, continuing to socialize and learn online. This effectively helps seniors enrich their lives and stay safe and healthy.
The classes provided are free and will be differentiated into Basic and Intermediate in 2 sessions. The topics of the Basic session will be
-
Briefing the internet
-
Utilize the tablet/iPad
-
Setting the Device: WiFi, Security, Bluetooth…etc
-

The intermediate class will be launched after September and announced to the public later.
