NSW Tech Savvy Seniors Grant Program

The Tech Savvy Seniors (TSS) program was launched in 2012 as a NSW Government initiative in partnership with Telstra. The TSS program provides older people in NSW with access to low-cost or free digital literacy training at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels on the use of computers, tablets, smartphones and online applications such as email, social media and cyber safety.

The TSS program is delivered by a network of NSW approved Adult and Community Education (ACE) providers and public libraries to seniors in Sydney metropolitan locations as well as in regional and remote communities across NSW.
