Digital skills for working life
The Digityöelämää project by Helsinki Employment Services is funded by the European Social Fund (ESF) and the City of Helsinki during the period from 1 February 2022 to 31 August 2023. The project is funded as part of the Union's response to the CCOVID-19 pandemic.
- The aim of the project is to promote employment by improving digital skills.
- Both digital skills that are essential for job-seeking and digital skills that have a positive impact on one’s quality of life are taught on the courses.
- For the duration of the course, participants can borrow a smartphone, which makes learning more effective and also encourages learning in their own everyday life.
- After completing the course, participants can keep the smartphones free of charge. The aim in providing the device is to ensure digital inclusion in society.
