We've packaged a set of solutions to common tech issues into 2-hour interactive online courses. Each course is designed for 90 minutes, along with up to 30 minutes at the end of the discussion to answer any questions or provide follow-up consulting.
These bite-sized tutorials help build an understanding of core concepts and start accomplishing your goals during the session. Most people take courses one-on-one, but you can take them with your partner or dependent. For more than two people, contact us for team / organizational rates.
Unlike the myriad YouTube videos or paid courses that stream or download, you can stop and ask questions at any time. Instead of a one size fits all program, we start with foundational knowledge, then connect with your specific concerns. This real-world approach means learning by doing, so you can feel progress by the end of the session.
Appropriate for all skill levels, these courses cover both concepts and specifics. Each session is structured for Q+A and assistance via screen sharing along the way, ensuring the course is tailored to your setup and needs. If you need more time, you can always book a follow-up.
Online Privacy
Learn best practices to make safeguarding your privacy convenient. By default, online platforms might have more access to you and your info than you might be comfortable giving. We review the settings of the platforms you use such as web browsers, social networks, Google, your mobile carrier and even your smart TV to make adjustments and suggest alternatives. Go beyond clearing out cookies (we cover that too) and help keep medical and other private information separate from the rest of your online life.
