Print this page Where Did I Save That? Managing Photos & Files with Confidence

Digital clutter can build up quickly, from thousands of photos on your phone to documents hidden somewhere on your computer. Many people spend more time looking for files than actually using them. This course is designed to help everyday technology users understand where their photos and files are stored and how to keep them organised. Through hands-on activities, you'll learn practical techniques for finding misplaced items, creating a logical folder structure, organising photo collections, and understanding how digital storage works across devices. You'll also explore simple ways to share, transfer and back up important content, helping you feel more confident and in control of your technology.

Suitable for Windows and Mac users who would like to feel more confident managing their files. Bring your own laptop if possible so you can practice on the device you normally use.
