Live Tutor-Led Digital Workplace Skills Training for Public Sector Organisations

Build a More Digitally Capable Workforce

Modern public sector organisations rely on digital systems to communicate, collaborate and deliver services. This practical live tutor-led online course helps organisations build a workforce that can work confidently, safely and efficiently in today’s digital workplace. Rather than focusing on one software application, the course develops the wider digital skills, behaviours and judgement employees need every day.

Learning That Reflects the Real Workplace

Learners don’t sit back and watch presentations. Every session is delivered live by an experienced tutor who demonstrates practical techniques before learners apply them immediately on their own computer. Throughout the programme, learners ask questions, receive individual feedback and collaborate with others in an interactive online classroom. This practical approach builds confidence because learners leave with experience of completing realistic workplace tasks, not simply watching demonstrations.

How Learners Are Supported

Every learner follows a structured adult learning journey. Before the course, Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) helps learners understand the programme and expected outcomes. A short initial assessment allows the tutor to understand each learner’s existing digital knowledge and confidence. Learning is delivered using the Recognising and Recording Progress and Achievement (RARPA) approach. The tutor monitors progress, provides feedback and encourages learners to reflect on how new knowledge can improve their day-to-day work. At the end of the programme, learners review their progress against the learning objectives and identify how they will apply their new skills within their current role. The tutor signposts appropriate next steps for continued professional development as digital technologies evolve.
