FORMAT
Tuesdays are dedicated to small group classes that explore a rotating lineup of current and emerging software tools, digital resources, and tech topics in a supportive, relaxed, and easy-to-follow format. Each session is project-based, meaning participants will work on a specific, practical task using the featured software so they leave with something completed and usable. All tools covered have free versions available; however, participants are expected to arrive ready to work with an active account, as class time will focus on using the software not setting it up.
Thursdays are reserved for one-on-one private sessions designed to answer simple, specific tech questions in 15 minutes or less. These sessions are ideal for quick troubleshooting, clarification, or guidance tailored to your individual needs. If your question requires more time, you’re welcome to sign up for consecutive 15-minute blocks. The goal of Thursday Tech Time is fast, focused support to help you move forward with confidence. Participants should bring their own device (laptop, tablet, or smartphone) so we can work directly within their tools and accounts.
