[NFB_of_Georgia] FW: [ibug-macntalk] Fall 2022 iBUG Mac Training Course

Tue Aug 16 12:05:12 UTC 2022

I wanted to share the below email that is a free zoom based class on how to
use an Apple Computer. I took this class a couple years ago, and it was very
helpful in learning the basics when I was mainly a Windows user.

Hope it is helpful if interested,

Hello,

The upcoming Mac Training Course has been open for enrollment, and we still
have some available spots to fill. Here is the announcement, and the

We are pleased to announce that iBUG Today will be offering a 12-week Mac

Tuesday evening on Zoom from 7:00 to 8:15 PM Central Time.

The course requirements and topics are listed below.

1. Participate in all classes with no more than one absence.

2. Attend at least half of all study sessions (days and times to be
determined based upon student and instructor availability).

3. Complete homework assignments, which include reading, Mac practice, and
providing oral answers to some of the focus questions from each lesson.

4. Attend the monthly iBUG Mac-N-Talk conference call. Three are included in
this course.

5. Must be able to follow classroom instruction consisting of lecture and
live demonstrations.

6.  All course sessions are conducted in a group format; one-on-one training
will not be provided.

7. Basic knowledge of Windows, iOS, and/or other operating systems may be
useful as a reference point but is not required.

2014 that support MacOS Monterey.

All sessions will be conducted via Zoom remote conferencing, a free
application available for both computer and phone that may be found at

stores.

Lecture recordings will be made available to review class material between
sessions. The recorded sessions may also be posted to the iBUG Today website
