The national digital entitlement funds adults aged 19+ with no or low digital skills to take a qualification called Essential Digital Skills (EDS). In the EDS course we'll help you use devices like tablets, smartphones and laptops. You'll learn how to perform everyday tasks, such as:

• browsing the internet
• sending an email
• using video calls to keep in touch with family and friends
• making online payments confidently
• knowing how to stay safe online

If you're unsure if EDS is right for you, our getting started with digital skills course will help you to make the choice. This course is also fully funded.

It is estimated that one in five adults lack the basic digital skills they need for everyday life and work. Let us help you to improve your digital skills!
