I have been through the over 55 program in 1999 and was very impress with the opportunities afforded those with less than marketable skills. I am now 67 years old, and living in Virginia. I am also currently enrolled in the SCSEP program for over 55. which again is teaching new skills and pays me to learn. I am loving it. I am now half way proficient in using a computer. My host company is the American Red Cross which is training to run the front desk. There is nothing to loose and a whole lot to gain. Especially confidence and self esteem.
