Technology Classes

Digital Literacy & Equity
 

MakeIT Haverhill’s Digital Literacy and Equity (DLE) Program provides comprehensive technology-based training to help community members compete in the modern job market. We jumpstart community members’ entry into the workforce with technology training and access to FREE computers and Wi-Fi.

We have partnered with the organization Tech Goes Home (TGH) to provide a free new Chromebook for each student who graduates our classes. This empowers students to not only learn new skills in the classroom, but to take what they learned home with them for real-world application!

 

We’ve partnered with organizations like UTEC and Urban Bridges (the Dinah’s House Program) to offer DLE classes to their clients. If you are interested in having us teach a class for your group or organization, please reach out to us!

 

Our classes last 8 weeks, meeting once a week for two hours, for a total of 16 hours of DLE instruction. We offer classes three times a year: we have winter, spring and fall semesters. Class offerings vary each semester.

• Computer Basics, taught in English or Spanish
