For activity directors, librarians, banks and advisors
Bring it to your residents or members. Free.
Your people are being targeted, and they would rather hear about it from someone standing in front of them than from a flyer in a pile of mail.
Forty-five minutes, no charge, and no pitch from the front of the room.
How to bring us in
The person in the room never pays.
That has always been the rule, and this year it is simple: the workshop is free to your residents.
And we will be straight with you about the selling. There is no pitch from the front of the room — nothing to buy, nothing to sign up for, and nothing on the take-home page but the scams and the safe word. If you would like us to mention our paid course to anyone who asks afterwards, we will; if your policy does not allow that, say so when you book and we will not. Either way the room hears the same forty-five minutes.

Beat the Scammers, in your room
Forty-five minutes for 55+ communities, libraries and senior centers. You provide the room and tell your residents; we bring the instructor, the printed handouts and the sign-in sheet.
It covers the newest scams aimed at older adults — including calls where a computer has copied a family member's voice — and how to recognize them.

Sponsored programs and the four-week course
We also offer funded sessions for banks, credit unions, employers, advisors and elder-law firms — your name on the invitation, everyone who attends comes free.
And the full four-week AI & Technology Basics course, delivered on site. If either is of interest, say so now and we will schedule you first.
We bring everything.
Laptop, printed handouts and a sign-in sheet. All we need from you is a room and a screen — and we can manage perfectly well without the screen.
We will send you a short paragraph and a flyer to put in your newsletter, so nobody has to write anything.
Who books us
Two very different reasons, one session.
Communities and libraries
You need programming your residents will actually turn up to, and scams are a subject nobody has to be persuaded to care about. It costs you nothing but the booking.
Banks, credit unions and advisors
Fraud prevention is already a funded priority for you, and an hour in a room does more for a client relationship than a mailing ever will.
Tell us a month and we will find a date.
One short conversation is all we need. We will tell you honestly whether your group is the right fit, and exactly what the forty-five minutes covers.
