What is digital literacy?

Digital literacy is the ability to navigate our digital world using reading, writing, technical skills, and critical thinking. It's using technology—like a smartphone, PC, e-reader, and more—to find, evaluate, and communicate information. With Microsoft Digital Literacy classes, you can gain skills needed to effectively explore the Internet.

Expand economic opportunity for everyone

Digital literacy can play a powerful role in helping people connect, learn, engage with their community, and create more promising futures. Simply reading articles online does not address digital literacy, so it is important for everyone to understand the variety of content and possibilities that are accessible online. This digital literacy course can help individuals gain the digital skills necessary to engage in a digital economy and improve livelihoods. The digital literacy program is used by individuals, nonprofits, schools, and governments all over the world.
