About ASCCA
Located on the Lower Ground floor of the SMSA building, ASCCA (Australian Seniors Computer Clubs Association) is the national peak body for seniors and technology, specialising in teaching computing to seniors.
ASCCA supports and encourages seniors to take advantage of modern information technology, to become computer literate at their own pace, in a friendly non-threatening environment – and to have fun whilst doing so.
And, of course, in the 21st century, IT includes not just computers, but also mobile phones, webcams, iPads and many other emerging technologies.
ASCCA’s courses are fun, accessible and easy, covering topics like how to use the internet, how to email, iPads and Androids, how to get the most out of Microsoft Word, and more.
