Come join a supportive group environment for self-paced digital skills courses. We'll be using Northstar Digital Literacy, a free online resource available to all Durham County Library patrons. A library staff member will be present to get you set up and answer questions as each participant moves through online modules on their own at their own pace. Northstar allows you to track your learning progress and earn badges or certificates for completing a course. These classes are best for learners who have at least basic keyboard and mouse skills. Our computer lab has a limited number of laptops for use, so bringing your own laptop and headphones is encouraged.

Computer and digital skills topics include:

Phone Keyboard Basics & Logging In
Basic Computer Skills
Internet Basics
Using Email
Windows 10 & 11
Mac OS
Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
Google Docs
Social Media
Information Literacy
Career Search Skills
Your Digital Footprint
Accessing Telehealth Appointments
Cybersecurity Basics

These classes are self-paced and each week participants will choose which lessons they want to complete on their own. You do not need to have come to the first class to attend the following weeks and there is no requirement to commit to all of the classes through April. Register for the weeks that work best for you!

If you have any questions or accommodation needs, contact Jimmy McKinnell at jmckinnell@dconc.gov or call 919-560-9940
