Technology and volunteers

[Leo Harwood]

My club has approx 550 members with around 20 volunteers doing various types of work on their home computers.<a href="http://">
I would like to have access to free or supported training programs so that volunteers and members can  work and access with much more confidence as training programs hard to find.
The average age of members at this club is around 58 years old
Can anyone help??

This request is somewhat outside the scope of this Forum. Try emailing Crispin Roberts at DSR. He's in charge of the Club Talk project and offered to put some materials together for you at our last meeting. If you want free courses on learning web technologies the W3Shools website is an excellent resource. Perhaps you could list the actual types of training programs you are looking for?

Hi Leo,

This is the same problem I found, and after listening to multiple DSR seminars I wanted to execute on the theory but couldn't find the simple tools for volunteers to use. So I built one.

It is actually built with my 60+ year old mother to use, so it is super simple and as it's in the cloud so everyone has the same information and on the same page. This also equates into a succession plan which clubs never think about.

Anyway I don't mean for this to be an advertorial but as it was built out of similar frustrations to what you are having I thought you may be interested. You can email me [e-mail] or find out more through http://tidyclub.com

Also it is proudly built in Perth :)

Cheers, Isaak
