What this is
Applied Digital Skills is built around practical tasks: a budget spreadsheet, a presentation, email etiquette, online research, digital safety. The videos are short and every step is repeatable.
The weight on a CV is small, but this is one of the few resources genuinely aimed at a complete beginner. For a teacher it also works as ready-made classroom material.
Who it is for
Anyone who needs digital skills from zero, or a teacher who wants ready-made lessons.
