Computer Basics

This 15-hour beginner course is designed for computer novices who need help setting up and running their computers and for anyone interested in learning basic computer skills. In this no-stress class, students will learn the basics of using a computer, how to use a mouse, how to use the desktop, how to start a software program, and how to install software. In addition, they will learn about working within a Windows environment, file management, online help options, using Microsoft Word to create documents, and using Microsoft Excel to create simple spreadsheets. The use of email and the internet will also be briefly discussed. Feel free to bring your own laptop if you are interested in installing or deleting programs. Guest access for computer use will be provided in class, so a CCAC account or email address is not required.
