The Art of Learning New Technologies Fast, with Avery Swartz

Regardless of the hesitation we sometimes have about learning new things, there are many times when it’s exciting, or at least necessary to take the plunge. But what do you do when you don’t even know where to begin?

Avery Swartz is the founder of Camptech.ca, a technology training center in Toronto, CA.

But even if you don’t live in Toronto, you can learn a thing or two from Avery about, well… learning.

She’s here to point us in the right direction when learning new technologies, because sometimes you just don’t know what you don’t know.

• The importance (and definition) of web accessibility
• Practical tech skills to start learning now
• Avery’s favorite online resources for learning
