To do this course, you must already be familiar with the computer, i.e. be computer literate at a basic level. Particularly you need:

  • to be able to use a mouse, keyboard, etc.
  • to understand what a browser is,
  • a basic understanding of navigation between web pages.

If you have a problem with one of the above, it is strongly recommended that you do a basic computer literacy course before doing this course. At the least, have someone show you how to use the computer, the browser and how to navigate.
