Devices

While you might own a smartphone with internet access, it might not be enough to access all the tools and resources you need to fully participate in the growing digital economy. Creating a resume, applying for a job, taking an online class, or conducting bookkeeping for a small business are much simpler on a laptop, desktop computer or tablet.
