We’re excited to be running another round of our Digital Exchange Program! In November and December we’re offering FREE training for community members to become Digital Mentors. Learn how to support your family, friends and/or 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.


This training is perfect for adults of all ages, for people looking to upskill or build upon their resume, people who are looking to help others and/or learn something new. 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.

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. Free lunch and refreshments will also be provided.
