Tech Tuesdays – Staff Training Program

By Faculty and Staff
Don’t we all want to be more confident and have more time available to us?

That’s the goal of the new Tech Tuesdays training program for staff and faculty – to make sure you have the knowledge you need to use the technology tools that Albion college provides. We want to give you confidence, knowledge, and time back into your day.

Please CLICK HERE to RSVP and reserve your seat at these first semester sessions.  

If you can’t make it to a session, but would like to suggest a technology topic that would be useful to you, email us at HelpDesk@abion.edu. Use the subject line “Tech Tuesday Topics” (because I love alliteration) so we can more easily track tech topics to teach to the total team.

Join us Tuesday, November 12 for Gmail and Google Chat

  • Best Practices for email
  • Tips and Tricks
  • Google Groups
  • …and more!

In December, we will look at Google Drive 🙂

We hope to see you Tuesday, November 12 at 1:00 in Mudd 210. Let us know if you’re planning on attending!
