Digital Business

Skills for the workplace.

Build digital skills you can use in your working day.

Practical tasks, not jargon.

From organising information and using spreadsheets to creating content and exploring AI, our proposed digital pathways focus on the things people actually do at work. Individuals can strengthen their own confidence, while employers can identify gaps and plan learning across a team.

Digital skills is the subject, not just the way it’s taught. You might learn spreadsheets in a classroom at our academy, or join a leadership course live online. Each course tells you how it’s delivered and what you’ll need — such as a laptop, a particular piece of software or an account.

Digital learning tracks

Each track can run at an introductory, developing or applied level, and every one ends with something practical you’ve produced.

Everyday digital confidence

Email, files, online forms, secure accounts and collaboration. You’ll complete a realistic work task on your own.

Microsoft 365 at work

Word, Outlook, Teams and shared files, brought together into a working team workflow.

Excel for practical reporting

Accurate data entry, formulas, tables and charts. You’ll build a usable practice spreadsheet.

Data confidence and dashboards

Read measures, spot what matters and explain your findings in a short dashboard or summary.

AI for everyday work

Use AI to draft, plan and summarise — and check its output for accuracy, confidentiality, bias and copyright.

AI for managers

Identify sensible uses for AI in your team and plan a small, responsible trial with clear review measures.

Cyber security awareness

Recognise phishing, protect your accounts and know who to tell when something looks wrong.

Website and content basics

Update web content, write accessible pages and understand how an enquiry reaches your business.

Content and creative

Digital marketing and social media

Understand your audience, plan content and look honestly at what worked. You’ll leave with a short campaign or content calendar.

Canva and brand-consistent design

Create usable materials in your organisation’s colours and fonts.

Smartphone photography and video

Capture, edit and caption good-quality content using the phone in your pocket.

Digital skills questions

What is CPD?

Continuing professional development — focused learning that helps you keep up and improve your professional practice. Our digital courses can include a practical task, reflection and a record of completion. We’ll confirm what each course records before you start.

Do I need my own laptop or software?

Each course lists what you’ll need. Where a course uses specific software, we’ll tell you in advance whether you need your own licence or account.

Is this Microsoft certification?

No. Our Microsoft 365 learning is practical training in using the tools at work. It isn’t a Microsoft certification and we aren’t a Microsoft partner.

I’m nervous about technology. Is that OK?

Absolutely. The introductory level is designed for people who feel less confident, and starts with the everyday tasks you need.

Courses and programmes are confirmed individually. Ask us about current availability, dates and costs before you plan around a particular course.
