Generations on Line

Generations on Line We help older adults across the country by sharing free tutorials to learn the Internet, email and apps through on-screen interactive, step-by-step, training.

For tablets and smartphones. The FREE tutorial is available as either (1) an App on Apple and Amazon App Store or Google Play, search for "Easy Tablet Help for Seniors" (Teaches tablet and smartphone) or (2) as a website www.generationsonline.org/apps

Any senior-serving agency can also receive free supportive materials on how to use our app to run programming. Contact us at 215-222-6400 www.generationsonline.org

Generations on Line is a national, award-winning nonprofit, based in Philadelphia, Pa. Our tutorials have been used to teach more than 130,000 older adults in senior centers, assisted living centers, public libraries, low income and retirement centers. We recently developed a new program to help computer-naïve seniors locate and apply for jobs online. www.golhelp.org.jobs

In addition to our training modules, we consult with organizations and government agencies to simplify their websites for seniors.
