Digital certificate - Included
The course covers a different in-demand employability skills each week with a big focus on digital skills and includes coaching elements to build workplace confidence. It covers:
Lifelong learning skills | Being able to learn is itself a skill and schools aren’t traditionally very good at building this skill. And because employers now expect staff to own their professional development this skill has become increasingly important. We will help you understand how you learn best and to develop your own personalised learning plan to fit learning into your life.
Digital communication and collaboration skills | Even before the pandemic hit there was a change in the way modern companies were expecting their staff to work. Our course has a big focus on tools and techniques for working on projects with others remotely. You’ll have fun using communication tools like Slack and collaboration tools like Trello. It can sound daunting using new tools but our team are experts at helping you get to grips with them.
Social media and your digital footprint | While we can’t teach you to be social media marketers on this course we will cover some key concepts and you will gain direct experience of crafting social media posts for a clear purpose and you’ll also be learning about LinkedIn and the role it has to play.
Visual communication skills | For many students learning best practice principles of graphic design is their favourite bit of the course. You get direct experience creating visual outputs such as graphics and charts.
Critical thinking and problem solving | Companies love employees who can identify problems and suggest solutions to fix them. On this course you’ll be coming up with ideas in your project groups. You will also be working with data which will help you understand the problem you need to fix.
Customer-centric skills | Creating a culture around the customer and their needs is widely recognised as a key driver of business success in today’s world. You’ll be getting inside the mind of potential customers for Digital Mums and designing ways to find out what they want and need.

There are no prior requirements. You don’t have to have studied online before, we have had plenty of students that have never done an online course and many students that haven’t formally studied since school. So it works if you're a total beginner. However, if you are more of a regular learner it can work for you too. We have designed a fun learning experience that builds confidence and employability skills regardless of where you are starting from.
