AppleMac Users Group Wednesday Workshop
Wednesday 7th May 12:30 – 2:30pm
Presenter: Bruce Ralph
Introduction to Mac: A Beginner’s Guide
“My sessions are usually fast-paced, but this workshop is intentionally slower. We’ll start right from the beginning—when your Mac starts up, after the welcome screen. Together, we’ll explore the menus, customise the Finder window, and cover essential basics to help you feel confident using your Mac. Bring your questions! A workshop guide booklet will be provided.”
These sessions are informal and designed to encourage conversation and collaboration among participants. Feel free to bring your MacBook, or use one of ours to follow along with the presentation.
Using Genealogy resources workshop;
This workshop will return later in the year.
