Lifelong learning is important no matter where you are starting and regardless of income or circumstances.
For the past decade, the GCFLearnFree.org program has helped millions of people learn the skills they need to live and work in the 21st century.
GCF LearnFree — a program of the Goodwill Community Foundation and Goodwill Industries of Eastern NC Inc. — offers over 125 tutorials — including more than 1,100 lessons, videos and interactive games — completely free.
Areas include technology, reading, math, computers, work and career, and everyday life. If you aren’t sure what you are looking for, the “All Topics” page is a great place to start.
No sign-in is required. All you need is an Internet connection, which you can get here at the library! (To get a library card, just bring in a picture ID and proof of your Okaloosa County home street address.)
So whether you want to learn about Chrome or Firefox (or what each is!), iPad or iPhone basics, punctuation or pronouns, or even how to work fractions, check out www.GCFLearnFree.org.
And never stop learning.
Sandra Dreaden is the Crestview Public Library's reference librarian.
