Training: Social Housing and digital
On this page you will find recourses and training support available from us.
Registered social landlords operating across Wales are in a strong position to support tenants, and members of the community, with increasing their digital skills, confidence and wellbeing.
Digital skills can enhance social connections, enable access to information and provide access to online services. Through working in partnership, Digital Communities Wales can support your organisation to help tenants to engage with the online world.
If you would like to discuss your training needs or find out more about the sessions we have on offer, please contact us and one of the team will be in touch.
How can digital benefit you and your tenants?
