Our Digital Citizenship course will give your participants the guidance needed in the ever-changing digital world. As our lives are lived more and more online, we all need to translate our social skills into the virtual world.

Digital Citizenship allows us to connect, collaborate, and share by using technology appropriately. In-person meetings are on the decline, which makes it necessary to engage people digitally. Being a good digital citizen means you have a set of skills to work in the digital world.
