KDL Offering Free Computer Classes

Here is something cool when it comes to computers.

If you're like me, I know just enough to be dangerous.  Yes, I can work my way through many computer tasks, after all, in broadcasting I'm working with computers all day, in the studio, in my office, when I'm on the phone, or remote broadcasts.

But, for a lot of folks, the opportunities aren't always there, so it's difficult to "stay-on-pace,"  to keep up with technology.

   That is why, whether you’re a computer novice or looking to update your skills, KDL’s (Kent District Library) free computer classes and workshops for job seekers can help you.  Registration is now open for their January classes which include:
