This session will provide an opportunity for BFS volunteer tutors to share time with Diane who has considerable expertise in the teaching of ICT skills to older learners. Diane will share her knowledge and pass onto you some of the tips and tricks she has used to fully engage her learners.
The session will also provide an opportunity to hear from other BFS Kiosk sites about their training programs. Diane was the Training & Development Officer for COTA Computing Club for seven years until its closure in 2007 and is now working part-time for ASCCA as a roaming/free-lance trainer visiting other ASCCA senior computer clubs and training in our Microsoft Mature Aged Workforce Training Program.
Prior to this Diane taught in TAFE labour market programs, Department of Corrective Services and SkillShare. Diane recently re-located to the Central Coast where she visits clubs and does guest speaker presentations in that area and Sydney.
