Did you know that one third of all US workers, nearly 48 million, do not have the foundational digital skills needed to secure in-demand jobs? As technology continues to play an increasing role in our social lives, digital literacy can also be a key to combatting loneliness, particularly for seniors.
That’s why at San Mateo County Libraries, we’re prioritizing digital literacy and ensuring our communities have access to a variety of technologies, reliable internet and essential digital skills.
Year round, we’re thrilled to offer a full schedule of free workshops led by expert instructors on a wide range of topics for beginners and seasoned pros alike—from navigating an iPhone to mastering ChatGPT. Whether you’re looking to advance your career, curb social isolation or simply indulge your curiosity, we hope you’ll join our community of lifelong learners and sharpen your tech skills at an upcoming workshop!
