“Our Digital Champions Network is now an invaluable resource for the local community and is helping residents not just to improve their IT skills but also to improve their life chances too.”
– Chris Hutson, London Borough of Waltham Forest
What we do
Whatever your digital strategy, you need your customers and staff to have the digital skills to embrace it. The best way to help them is by having a team of Digital Champions.
Digital Champions can be anyone such as colleagues, residents and local volunteers. They are people who want to help others and who want to learn themselves. Crucially they offer that personal touch that changes attitudes and builds digital skills and confidence in others.
With us, your Digital Champions achieve more
Here’s where we come in. We have products and services that train and resource your Digital Champions and give your digital inclusion programme clarity and structure.
Our beating heart is our award-winning Digital Champions Network used by hundreds of organisations across the UK. More than that, we offer customised training, tools and approaches to make your Champion model fit perfectly for your people.
"The Digital Champions Network is helping us to deliver digital skills support & training in every corner of our communities.”
