Online dating might seem confusing to those who are not knowledgeable about the web.<\/p>\n

But organisers of a new programme in Northwich aim to allay these concerns and introduce residents to the internet, the Northwich Guardian reports.<\/p>\n

Learning centres around the town are offering taster sessions that allow people to sample long-term courses on offer.<\/p>\n

These will cover basic computing, lifestyle and employability programmes and an introduction to online dating, amongst other useful tools, the news source notes.<\/p>\n

"We provide useful training, as well as the opportunity for people to engage in leisure pursuits online [and] absolutely free," says tutor Mark Littler.<\/p>\n

It also offers participants the chance to become digital champions and promote the web to others in their area.<\/p>\n

A recent piece in the Observer advised singletons to choose their online dating site wisely, as there are many that target a wide range of interests, while others are tailored to specific requirements.<\/p>\n
