Start here.
Go further.
A little more understanding.
A little more confidence with computers.

Start with what matters to you.
A different starting point
You don’t have to
know all the answers.
You just need a question. Sending an enquiry gives you a way to discuss your experience, your goals and the academy’s current training options.
What’s on your mind?
Everyday skills.
New possibilities.
These are learning interests to discuss, not advertised courses. Availability and programme details need to be confirmed directly.
45+A new chapter can start here.
For the way you learn now
Experience in life.
Curiosity for what’s next.
Learning about computers does not have to begin with jargon.
Maybe you want to organise family documents, feel less lost in a new application, or understand a technical term you keep hearing. Those are useful things to talk about.
If you are 45–65 or older, tell us about your preferred pace, your device and any practical access needs. Ask which current arrangements could suit you before committing.

Let’s make the
next step clear.
The practical details.
Check current options, fees, dates, equipment and any entry requirements.
In your own time.
An enquiry is a conversation. A learning agreement is a separate decision.
Before you begin
Good questions.
Clear answers.
A few things worth knowing before you make an enquiry.
Am I too old to start learning about computers?
This website is written with adult learners in mind, including people aged 45, 55, 65 and above. Your age alone does not describe your experience. Tell us what you already use and what you would like to understand better.
Do I need previous computer experience?
You can enquire whether you are new to computers or returning after a break. Tell us about your starting point so that any available options and their entry requirements can be discussed accurately.
Which courses can I enrol in?
Please contact the academy for its current programme information. This website presents learning interests and illustrative practice ideas, not a confirmed course catalogue. A place, start date or programme is not booked through this website.
Are coding or AI courses currently available?
Coding and AI appear here as topics you may wish to ask about. Their inclusion does not confirm that a specific course is available. Ask for the current syllabus, prerequisites, delivery arrangements and fees before deciding.
Will I receive an accredited certificate?
No accreditation, NQF credit, qualification or certificate is promised on this website. If recognition matters to you, ask for written details and verify the relevant accreditation before making a commitment. Company registration is not education accreditation.
What are the fees, dates and learning arrangements?
Fees, dates, duration, language of instruction, delivery format, equipment needs and any cancellation terms must be confirmed directly for a specific option. No price or timetable is advertised here, and there is no online payment.
Do I need to bring a laptop?
Please check the equipment requirements when discussing a particular training option. This website does not confirm that devices, software licences or internet access are supplied.
Does sending the form enrol me?
No. It starts a conversation. Enrolment, payment and any learning agreement would need to be handled separately after the details have been confirmed.
