Hello,

We are pleased to announce that iBUG Today will be offering a 12-week Mac
course beginning Tuesday, March 7, 2023. Sessions take place every Tuesday

session every Thursday from 5:30 to 6:30 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.

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.

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

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