In today’s digital age, it’s more important than ever to understand how to navigate the online world and utilize technology effectively. To that end, Venture Communications is teaming up with Mitchell Technical College in 2024 to bring free digital literacy and streaming classes to the communities they serve.
The digital literacy class will explore the wide range of benefits that digital technology has to offer and will introduce you to the basic functions of various devices including smartphones, laptops, and tablets. Practical applications of digital technology — such as email communications, paperless bill management, telemedicine, online banking, and social media platforms will be discussed — as well as how to identify common online threats and protect your online safety and security.
The streaming class will dive into the in and outs of the video streaming world. Instructors will help you understand the benefits of streaming, how to stream on different devices, and how to choose the right streaming platform for you based on your needs. They will also go over the importance of internet speed and how it affects video quality, help you understand the remote-control functionality, and provide hands-on practice with streaming.
Classes are planned in Britton, Pierpont and Langford. See the schedule in the box below.
These are the first of many free classes that will be held this year. Venture will update the public on future locations and schedules.
Everyone is welcome to attend. Each class is limited to 15 people. To sign up, please call Venture Communications at 605-852-2224.
