This course will enable and support you to develop the digital skills needed to prepare for further study, work and everyday life. It is an ideal stepping stone for the Essential Digital Skills (EDS) course, as well as helping you to recognise and/or refresh what you know already. It gives an overview of what digital skills are and how they are used in everyday life as well as allowing you to understand the importance of keeping yourself safe online. If you have not been in a learning environment, or unsure if EDS is the pathway for you, then this Introduction to Digital Skills will help you to make that choice. We recommend this course for everyone as a starting point for Essential Digital Skills.
