Connected Nation Launches Digital Literacy Program In Collaboration with AT&T

Connected Nation is launching a Digital Literacy program in collaboration with AT&T. The program is part of AT&T’s national digital literacy initiative to help narrow the digital divide. The Digital Literacy program will offer in-person and virtual digital literacy training workshops across the country where this training is needed most for the digital empowerment of residents. In addition to the workshops being held in communities across the US, Connected Nation will lead virtual and in-person workshops for military families at their Digital Works office in Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Workshops topics include internet and computer basics, cybersecurity, email basics, mobile device basics, and web conferencing. Connected Nation will partner with local community organizations across the county to host training workshops from September 2022 through March 2023. To launch this program Connected Nation staff are reaching out to communities that previously participated in the community technology planning process and identified digital literacy as a need. If your community is interested in learning more, visit: https://connectednation.org/digital-literacy-workshops/.
