Introduction to Digital Tools programme

Introduction to Digital Tools

A calm, unhurried starting point for those new to technology.

If the idea of using a computer, tablet, or smartphone feels unfamiliar or even a little intimidating, this programme was created specifically for you. The Introduction to Digital Tools module begins from the very beginning — no prior experience assumed, no technical knowledge required.

Over the course of this programme, participants develop a working understanding of what devices are and how they function, how the internet operates in practical terms, and how to carry out everyday tasks online safely and comfortably. We believe that genuine confidence comes from understanding, not just from following instructions, so we explain the reasoning behind each step as well as the steps themselves.

The programme is structured into manageable sections, each building on the last. Participants can progress at their own pace, revisiting material as many times as needed. There is no timetable to keep, no examination to pass, and no pressure of any kind.

What this programme covers

  • Understanding devices: computers, tablets, and smartphones
  • Connecting to the internet safely
  • Using a web browser to find information
  • Creating and managing an email account
  • Basic file management and document creation
  • Video calling with friends and family
  • Understanding operating system basics (Windows and Apple)
  • Safe shutdown and device care

This programme suits you if:

  • You have little or no experience with computers
  • You feel uncertain about where to begin
  • You want to learn at a relaxed pace
  • You'd like to stay connected with family online
  • You want to understand technology — not just use it

This programme may not be right if:

  • You are already comfortable browsing and emailing
  • You are looking for advanced technical skills
  • You are seeking employment or income opportunities
  • You want a qualification or accredited certificate
Ethical learning disclaimer: This programme is entirely educational. Participation does not lead to employment, income, or any guaranteed outcome. The skills taught are for personal use and informed digital participation only.

Frequently asked questions

You will need access to a computer, tablet, or smartphone and an internet connection. Our material is designed to work with the most common devices — Windows PCs, Apple Mac computers, iPads, and Android tablets. If you're unsure whether your device is suitable, you're welcome to get in touch and we'll advise you.
There's no fixed duration — you work through the material at your own pace. Most participants spend between 2 and 4 hours per week engaging with the content, but this is entirely up to you. There is no deadline or pressure to complete material by a certain time.
Yes. This programme is designed precisely for people at that stage. We start from the very beginning and never assume any prior knowledge. Every concept is introduced clearly before it is used.
Vylentro's programmes are educational and informal in nature. We do not issue formal qualifications or accredited certificates. The value of the programme lies in the knowledge and confidence you gain.
Safe and Confident Online Participation programme

Safe and Confident Online Participation

Building the knowledge to navigate the internet with greater assurance.

This programme is designed for those who are already using the internet but would like to feel more confident and in control of their online experience. Whether you're uncertain about what to click, unsure how to spot a scam, or simply want a clearer understanding of how to protect your personal information, this module provides practical, non-alarming guidance.

Our approach here is deliberately calm. Online safety is sometimes presented in ways that create fear rather than empowerment — we take the opposite view. Understanding how threats work, what signs to look for, and what simple steps reduce risk significantly is far more useful than worry. The goal of this programme is informed awareness, not anxiety.

By the end of this programme, participants have a solid foundation in recognising the most common forms of online risk, managing their digital footprint responsibly, and navigating everyday online interactions with greater ease.

What this programme covers

  • Understanding common online threats: phishing, scams, and misinformation
  • How to evaluate the trustworthiness of websites
  • Password management and account security
  • Protecting personal data and privacy settings
  • Safe use of social media platforms
  • Understanding and managing cookies
  • Recognising suspicious emails and messages
  • What to do if something goes wrong online
  • Using public Wi-Fi safely

This programme suits you if:

  • You use the internet but have safety concerns
  • You've encountered suspicious emails or messages
  • You want to feel more in control online
  • You're new to social media and want guidance
  • You want to protect your personal information better

This programme may not be right if:

  • You are already well-versed in online security
  • You are seeking professional cybersecurity training
  • You are looking for employment in IT security
  • You want a technical, in-depth security qualification
Ethical learning disclaimer: This programme aims to educate and inform. It does not provide legal advice, technical security services, or guarantees of safety. Online environments change, and no educational programme can eliminate all risk. The aim is informed, confident participation.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, this is an excellent follow-on from Introduction to Digital Tools. It builds on a basic understanding of how to use the internet and takes a deeper look at how to do so safely. It can also be taken independently by those who are already comfortable with basic online tasks.
We make a conscious effort to present online safety clearly and calmly. Our aim is to empower rather than alarm. We describe what risks exist and how to recognise them, but always with a constructive, practical focus on what you can do — not on what might go wrong.
Yes. Protecting financial information is an important component of this programme. We cover how to recognise fraudulent payment pages, safe online banking practices, and how to report suspected financial scams. However, we do not provide financial advice — our focus is on safe online behaviour.
Exploring Remote Work Platforms Responsibly programme

Exploring Remote Work Platforms Responsibly

An objective, grounded educational overview of online platforms and how they work.

This programme is for those who are curious about the online landscape — specifically, how digital platforms function, what kinds of activities take place online, and how to evaluate what they encounter with informed, critical thinking.

It is important to be direct about what this programme is and is not. It is not a pathway to earning money online. It is not a recruitment service. It does not guarantee that you will find work, generate income, or secure any engagement with any platform. What it does is provide a clear, balanced educational foundation — so that if you choose to explore online opportunities independently, you do so with a realistic understanding of what's involved.

The internet contains both legitimate opportunities and significant risks. This programme helps you tell the difference — through critical thinking, informed research, and awareness of how these environments operate ethically and unethically.

What this programme covers

  • What online platforms are and how they're structured
  • Different types of remote activity: freelancing, microtasks, surveys, and more
  • How to research any platform before engaging with it
  • Understanding terms and conditions and their implications
  • Recognising red flags: unrealistic promises, payment upfront, pressure tactics
  • What legitimate opportunities typically look like vs. what they don't
  • Protecting yourself legally and financially as an individual
  • How to report suspicious platforms or activity

This programme suits you if:

  • You're curious about how online platforms work
  • You want to evaluate opportunities critically
  • You're already comfortable online and want to learn more
  • You want to understand what's realistic and what isn't

This programme may not be right if:

  • You expect guaranteed work or income as a result
  • You are not yet comfortable with basic internet use
  • You want professional career guidance or employment support
  • You are looking for investment or financial planning advice
Ethical learning disclaimer: Vylentro makes no income, employment, or earnings promises. This module is educational only. Any decisions you make regarding online platforms are entirely your own, made independently after your own research. We strongly advise independent legal and financial advice before engaging with any platform that involves payment.

Frequently asked questions

No. This programme does not create, facilitate, or guarantee any form of earning. It provides educational information about how online platforms work. Any decision to engage with an online platform is entirely your own, made independently, and we strongly encourage careful personal research and appropriate professional advice before doing so.
Yes, though we recommend completing our Introduction to Digital Tools and Safe Online Participation programmes first, as this module builds on a basic understanding of the internet and online safety.
Rather than promoting or endorsing specific platforms (which could change at any time), this programme teaches you how to evaluate any platform using consistent critical thinking tools. You'll learn what questions to ask and what information to look for, which applies to any platform you may encounter.
