Real Centres

 

Would you like to surf the Internet? Research your family history? Or perhaps you need to learn how to use a spreadsheet? You can do all this and more besides at the Real Learning Centre in your local library.  

 

Real Learning Centres have been created within Glasgow's libraries as part of an exciting project that helps you use a computer to learn new skills - and make a Real difference to your life.  The centres provide free access to state-of-the-art computers and offer vocational and leisure-based lifelong learning opportunities, including hands-on workshops and online courses.


You'll find that the approach taken to learning is flexible and welcoming so that you can benefit from, or simply enjoy, any of the possibilities opened up by computers.

 

You don’t need any previous experience – our trained staff will get you up and running in the shortest time possible: whether you work through some of the many learning resources available, develop new skills, improve job prospects, revise for exams or follow personal interests or hobbies, they are on hand to help you to do exactly what you like.
