Basic Digital Qualifications
Basic digital skills are vital for everyday life, from using smartphones to internet banking and everything in between. What if your learners haven’t had the opportunity to explore and develop these skills though? Don’t worry! It’s estimated that 4.3 million people in the UK lack the basic skills required for work, study or everyday life, so you’re not alone.
The Essential Digital Skills qualifications aims to help people develop these skills, and are automatically funded for adults who need these skills for life and work. If you would like to learn more about how the course could help you, visit our comprehensive EDSQ pages.
