What if your team could access hundreds of courses and workshops at the click of a button? Well now they can!
Digital Jersey is excited to share our new Digital Skills Credits pilot. We’re making it easier for you to bridge the digital skills gap in your business.
Every day technology is advancing and the skills gap in our Island is getting bigger. That’s why prioritising digital skills for all remains an important part of our work at Digital Jersey.
So far, we have helped over 3000 islanders complete over 100 different courses to learn how to use digital tools and platforms effectively. These new skills can increase productivity and efficiency in the workplace and provide individuals with the much needed digital skills employers are looking for.
We know that high quality, relevant and readily accessible digital development can be difficult to find and time consuming to organise. That’s why we’re excited to pilot our new Digital Skills Credit scheme making it easier and more cost effective to access our courses and workshops. This pilot will run from July to December 2023.
From June 2023 we are trialing a 6 month pilot for digital skills credits.
We hope that this will make it easier and more cost effective for
businesses and individuals to bridge the digital skills gap.
You will still be able to access a vast array of free and paid courses and
workshops at Digital Jersey – just the way you pay and sign up for these resources will change.
To date, the Government of Jersey have funded a variety of courses as part of covid and economic recovery funding. Moving to a hybrid of free and paid courses allows us to be able to sustain the quantity and quality of the skills we can support in the long term. We hope that the pilot will be a success and will launch fully in 2024.
