Online Learning At Arbroath Library
Arbroath Library is offering a number of ‘Learning Bytes’ courses, in conjunction with Learn Direct Scotland.
Courses include: basic web design, computer basics, internet navigation (world wide web), Microsoft XP, and MS Office.
The courses can be accessed at the library, at home or in the workplace and Learn Direct Scotland certificates are awarded on completion of each course.
An SQA course in digital literacy and internet safety will be available later in the year.
Learn Direct Scotland offers around 600 other courses.
Arbroath is the first library in Angus to achieve Learn Direct status. Progress of the initiative will be monitored this year as the Arbroath library moves to Learn Direct accreditation and may be rolled out to other libraries in due course.
