The government’s services all moved online, and nobody handed out a map. This class walks through myGov one calm screen at a time — setting it up, keeping it safe, and actually using Medicare and Centrelink from the couch.
It’s for anyone who’s been told “just do it online” and quietly dreads it.

Questions worth asking
Do I practise on the real myGov website?
No — you practise on drawn, simulated screens, so nothing can go wrong while you learn. Then you use the real thing with confidence.
I’m locked out of myGov. Will this help?
Yes — lesson 2 is exactly that rescue, step by step, including when to ring the helpdesk.
Won’t it date when myGov changes?
The class teaches the parts that don’t change — how the system fits together and the safety habits — and every class is reviewed regularly.
