Computers, tablets, and smartphones are everywhere. Today, many tasks — whether personal, social, or administrative — require basic digital skills. From sending emails to browsing the internet, there’s no reason to feel left behind. Learning these skills brings confidence, independence, and connection with family and friends.
Knowing how to set up, adjust, and use your computer, smartphone, or even your tablet is more than necessary. At a time when all user manuals are available online, many people are not comfortable with these new technologies, which require being self-taught to learn how they work.
On Premiers Clics, you will find all the resources you need to learn at your own pace how to use these new technologies : how to copy and paste, create folders, connect a Wi-Fi printer, protect your PC, send emails and attachments, use the internet, as well as how to set up a smartphone or a tablet, change the screen sleep timeout, scan documents… and much more !
