Free AI Classes for Seniors

At SecondPhase Legacy Solutions, we believe technology should feel helpful — never intimidating. These free classes are our way of giving back to the community and making sure no one is left behind as the world changes.
You do not need to understand computers to attend. We use plain language, real-life examples, and we take our time. If something is unclear, we simply go over it again.
Together we explore the everyday ways AI can make life a little easier — writing a clearer email, planning a trip, organizing family photos, finding a recipe, or staying safer online.
“Technology is at its best when it quietly helps people — not when it overwhelms them.”

Common Questions
Gentle Answers to Common Questions
If you are wondering about anything else, please just ask — we are happy to help.
Do I need any experience with AI or computers?+
For our Wednesday Introduction to AI classes, no experience is needed at all. If you can hold a phone or sit at a table, you are ready. Our Friday Advanced AI classes are designed for people who have already used AI tools like ChatGPT and are comfortable navigating apps and websites on their own.
What should I bring?+
Just yourself. If you have a phone, tablet, or laptop you are comfortable with, feel free to bring it. If not, that is perfectly fine too.
Will someone help me if I get stuck?+
Yes, always. There is no such thing as a silly question here. Help is right next to you whenever you need it.
Are the classes difficult?+
No. We move slowly, repeat things as often as needed, and use everyday language. You set the pace, not the other way around.
How big are the groups?+
Groups are kept small on purpose, so everyone gets personal attention and a chance to ask questions.
Are the classes really free?+
Yes. There is no cost, no fee, and no sales pitch. This is our way of giving back to the community.
What if I feel nervous or overwhelmed?+
That is completely normal — and welcome. Many people feel that way at first. We go gently, and you can take breaks whenever you need.
You do not need to understand computers to attend. Just come as you are.
