- 2 min read
The Quapaw Nation is preparing a new series of Digital Skills Classes designed specifically for Elders. These hands-on sessions will focus on helping participants feel more comfortable using everyday technology such as phones, tablets, and laptops.
The goal of the classes is to make technology easier to understand while providing a welcoming environment where Elders can learn at their own pace and ask questions along the way.
The three-day learning series will cover a range of practical topics, including understanding personal devices, navigating the Quapaw Nation website, and developing everyday digital skills.
