If you would like to learn something that doesn't seem to be on our course list, please email the office who will forward your email to the appropriate course coordinator.
Our main learning opportunities are listed below. Some of our sessions are free for SeniorNet members, and for some sessions there is a small charge. Pre-registration is required for our popular sessions so we can ensure we have PCs and tutors available.
All scheduled learning opportunities are shown on our calendar, and closer to their date they will also be shown on our home page and this will tell you if there is a cost and how to register. A weekly email to members also provides details of what's upcoming.
