The Place is excited to be providing FREE training for community members to become Digital Mentors! Learn how to support family, friends and your community to improve their digital skills and confidence.
You need to attend one day of FREE training and be willing to support learners over 50. We'll be providing resources and follow up support sessions to assist you, including a community support opportunity for mentors to teach learners on a specific topic.
All Digital Mentors who complete this program will receive a certificate that can be added to your resume and have the opportunity to win prizes for supporting learners.
This opportunity is perfect for people looking to upskill or build upon their resume and people who are looking to learn something new and help others. It's also particularly beneficial for anyone working with or supporting people over 50, such as those who work in aged care or the community sector.
Free lunch and refreshments will be provided, please let us know if you have any dietary requirements.
Bookings are essential and spaces are limited. To book your spot call us on (02) 4032 5500 or email programs@theplacecharlestown.org.au
Please note that after completing this training we ask mentors to support 4 learners (over 50) with a basic digital skill to improve their digital confidence (don't worry even short support sessions count). We also ask mentors to get a volunteer police check and to compensate mentors for the cost we provide you with a $30 gift card.
