Senior Surf Days

AAAs coordinate Senior Surf Day classes throughout the state for seniors and caregivers. These educational sessions are held at libraries, senior centers and senior apartment complexes and offer basic computer and Internet training to participants.

Seniors are invited to a free session on learning to Surf the Internet! These classes are geared to seniors who have little or no experience with computers. The sessions offer practice hands-on learning opportunities for new computer users in a comfortable setting.

Each class lasts approximately 2 hours, enough time for attendees to become familiar with the computer (mouse, keyboard and desktop) and learn the basics of surfing the Internet.

When leaving the two-hour class participants understand some of what their children, grandchildren and neighbor kids are talking about!

Participants will learn how to:

  • Type in a web address and navigate from one webpage to the next,
  • Determine if a website is secure,
  • Conduct searches using common search engines such as Google,
  • Prevent, detect and report healthcare fraud, and
  • Access Internet sites that will assist in obtaining information including Medicare.gov, the Administration on Aging, and MinnesotaHelp.info.
