Computer Class Schedule

Oxford Area Senior Center offers computer classes unlike anywhere else. Our goal is to provide hands-on and detailed instruction in a non-intimidating and patient environment. All class participants are encouraged to ask questions. Each student receives a class manual to keep for future reference. No tests are given.

The classes are offered September thru July. For a complete outline of courses please stop by and pick up a Computer Class Course Description or click here to go to the Computer Home Page. If you are interested in a subject we do not have listed, please call us with your idea. We will add new classes as interest indicates.

Registration is important so that we know we have enough students to run the class and we need to prepare enough materials for each student. Class size is limited to 10, so register early to reserve your spot.
