Digital Skills

Learn about using digital services, from a beginner’s perspective

 

Living in the Digital Age

As time goes on, more and more advances in technology are providing new services to our daily lives, many of which make your day to day tasks simpler and more efficient. With this comes the necessity to learn about these services and technologies, so that you’re able to harness their potential.

Many adults struggle with the basics of using technology; with children becoming more and more reliant on tech, it’s important that adults understand how things work and learn the safest ways to use different devices and services, such as the Internet.
