You don't need to be a digital expert to become a Digital Champion, but you do need a passion for helping others.

Working collaboratively with Barclays, they are able to offer you this amazing, free Digital Champion programme. The programme was designed for anyone who wants to support the people around them to develop essential digital skills. You will be sharing essential digital skills to help people become more skilled or avoid becoming digitally excluded and isolated. The programme uses virtual sessions alongside online learning modules on Digital Wings to create an environment for Digital Champions to develop their digital skills ready to start supporting people around them. 

How does it work? 

To become a Digital Champion you’ll join three 90 minute virtual sessions hosted by Barclays Digital Eagles. You’ll also need to complete some specially selected online learning modules in Digital Wings to help boost your knowledge and give you the skills you need to share with others.

The programme will take around six weeks to complete with around 90 minutes of learning each week. Following this, Digital Champions will have a learning space to revisit for new learning, resources and more support if needed
