Get Smart @ Hearts | Over 50s Tech Support Club

02 April 2024

Are you over 50 and worried about staying safe online? Scared of being scammed?

Join ACE IT at the Hearts Innovation Centre to learn all about how to stay safe while using the internet. Topics covered will include:

  • Password management
  • Viruses
  • Avoiding scams
  • Online security
  • And much more!

There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions.

Previous attendees of ACE IT’s Online Safety sessions have found it informative and helpful in improving their confidence while using the internet. One said: "I was so impressed with the lecture on 'Scams' that on exiting, I congratulated the volunteer on the speed and timing of delivery.  It was one of the best presentations I have ever attended.”

This presentation takes place on Tuesday 23rd April from 10:30am to 12pm. To book, please call 0131 667 2053 or email info@aceit.org.uk!
