Introduction to Computers All new members to Computers Pals for Seniors, Epping are required to commence their computer journey by doing this course. One of the main objectives of this course is to deal with the fact that many new members have had little or no experience with computers.  As a result, they approach the learning process with a certain amount of apprehension. The course provides the essential basic functions of the computer, and in the process, overcomes the initial uncertainty. This is achieved also by emphasizing that the Club is there for the enjoyment of members. As a Club for Seniors, we have the following stated objective: "To create a pleasant and non-threatening learning environment for  members to learn to the extent that they require, or are able to achieve." From time to time, there will be new members who have had a considerable experience with computers. By doing this course, they will get an insight into how the Club works, and also the scope of courses offered. On completion of this course, the trainer and helpers will discuss with their students the courses to which they can progress, according to their present ability.
