Since 1993, the purpose of the TLC (formerly the Computer Lab) has been to provide informal teaching and hands-on experience to pediatricians and other healthcare providers who want to learn more about the use of computers in Pediatrics. TLC Faculty are members of SCOCIT who are prepared to answer questions from the novice to the advanced computer user.

The links at left have been collected through the years and are starting points for some of the more commonly asked questions about finding pediatric information on the internet.

There are also links to some of the computer applications being used and demonstrated at the TLC. If you have questions (and assuming you're viewing this at the TLC) PLEASE nudge the TLC Faculty - that's what we're here for.... Enjoy!
