These days it is difficult to avoid using computer tools. It is undeniable that the arrival of new technology facilitates long-distance communication and relationships. More and more administrative procedures require computer skills. However, not everyone is the Mozart of the keyboard, especially generations born during the period when the censor's pen and inkwell were legion.
Based on this observation, the municipality wanted to inquire about the expertise of the specialists so that the applicants could improve their level of use of the “mouse.” Last Friday, the Ernest Ferrol Chamber, Philippe Lesina, Vice Mayor, hosted the first computer workshop for seniors. It was up to Sylvie Blanchet Leray, head of coordination of the Espace Senior Corbières Minervois Association in the administration, to introduce all the offers that the association provides to seniors, as well as preventive training. Training was given throughout the morning by Victorine Bernat, Digital Consultant, during the first workshop that will be conveyed by 4 others. Topic of the first meeting: How to organize your computer, your folders and files. Two educational hours during which the ten participants became familiar with the keyboard.
