Cyber Security Essentials: A Guide for Seniors in Australia


Welcome to Your Internet Safety Journey
It’s completely normal to feel a bit unsure or even nervous about using technology. You’re not alone, and this course is here to help you feel more comfortable and confident as you use the internet in your daily life. There’s no rush—take your time, and remember that the goal is to build your confidence for everyday situations, not to become a computer expert overnight.  

About This Course
