YW Strive

Through a joint venture from Google and YWCA USA, we are excited to offer a FREE computer basics course with an emphasis on professional development. This 10-week course meeting once a week for 3 hours will prepare students to use Google Suite in addition to workplace skills.

Participants learn essential skills such as:

• Downloading files to and from USBs
• Google Docs and Sheets basics
• Budget software skills
• Creating and presenting Google Slides presentations
• Public speaking
• Writing a resume and cover letter
• How to create a LinkedIn profile (participants will also have the option to take a professional headshot)

Cohorts are held both at YWCA Princeton and on-site at partnering organizations, like Ewing Assisted Living and the John O. Wilson Hamilton Neighborhood Center. The next Strive cohort will begin in May; stay tuned for more details!
