                                We are pleased to announce that iBUG Today 
will be offering a 12-week Mac course beginning Tuesday, September 6, 2022. 
Sessions take place every 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.
                                8. The course will be most beneficial for 
students who have Macs newer than 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 http://zoom.us and in the iOS, Android, and 
Windows app 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 and social media for use by interested 
individuals who are not otherwise able to take the course. Please do not 
sign up If you are uncomfortable being recorded. During the class, you will 
be part of an email list for the receiving of announcements and discussion 
of course material.
