West Auckland also offers the following classes on a regular
basis if requested by three or more:
Word
processing at various levels from basics to levels 1, 2 and
3,
Libre
Office, ipad,
Excel.
For current members of SeniorNet we have
new name cards that have a barcode printed on them that
can be scanned when purchasing goods from Noel Leaming.
We get a percentage of the cost of goods sold
through this company which goes towards running SeniorNet
around the country. We therefore need to make sure that
every sale is charged as such and not just put on the Gold
Card which has been happening.
We will have the cards at the Learning
Centre in the Henderson RSA and they can be picked up on
our Help Days on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month.
SeniorNet is not currently getting funding from the
Government so your support with this is very much
appreciated.
If you would like to do a refresher on any of our
courses they are $10 cheaper than the original one, you
just need to bring your original notes with you.
Let Pam
know (09- 827 2156) and she will advise
you of a date.
