Be Connected Mentor Training Sessions

Are you looking for ways to give back to your local community...why not become a Digital Volunteer Mentor with HKCC!

There are many people that need help to use the internet and learn essential digital skills. Digital Mentors support people to build their confidence and skills to use digital technology. 

Being a Digital Mentor is about inspiring people to try using digital technology and supporting them through their first steps using computers, mobile devices and the internet. 

Qualities you need Supporting digital skills is not all about technical knowledge - you don’t need to be a ‘computer expert’. Being a Digital Mentor is more focused on being good with people. You need to have patience, enthusiasm, adaptability and be good at listening. You just need a basic understanding of the internet and how to use a range of devices. If you don’t know how to do something online you’ll have the skills to search for an answer.

We’re looking for volunteers to assist and our Be Connected digital literacy program by mentoring others. You don’t have to be over 50, just interested in using your skills and knowledge to help others.
