Participants learn foundational skills including:

All individuals who complete the four‑hour training will earn a Microsoft Digital Literacy Certificate and become eligible for CompTIA A+ training, a widely recognized credential that can help launch an information technology career.

The training is beginner‑friendly, requires no prior experience, and includes loaner computers to ensure all participants can engage fully.

“We are excited to see residents taking the first step toward strengthening their digital skills and accessing career pathways in the growing tech sector,” said Tanya Evrenson, MAC Director of Workforce and Youth Development. “We encourage anyone interested to join one of the remaining sessions.”
