Staying Safe Online Certificate

Staying Safe Online Course

Today’s teenagers and youngsters are extremely savvy internet users. They know how to use the internet for a variety of things, including research, downloading study material, playing games, watching movies and chatting with their friends. However, despite their expertise with the internet, it is important for them to practise caution while online.

Extra vigilance and awareness are needed to keep themselves safe from numerous online risks.

Adolescents may experience risks from the internet in a number of different ways, without even being consciously aware of it. But by safeguarding themselves, they can protect their personal, physical and financial safety.

What You Will Learn:

  • Why the internet is here to stay and why young people are at higher risk
  • How adolescents are exposed to a number of different risks on a daily basis
  • How to protect yourself from the dangers of online radicalisation
  • How you should practise safe surfing to protect yourself from a variety of risks
  • How to protect financial information, credit cards and bank accounts online
  • How to practise safe online chatting and how to keep your Instagram extra secure

Benefits of the Course:

  • You will learn the rules of responsible online behaviour or safe surfing
  • You can keep yourself safe from online extremism by recognising danger signals
  • You will learn how to conduct commercial transactions without revealing important financial information to potential fraudsters
  • You will learn to navigate the internet without making yourself vulnerable to cyberstalkers and sexual predators

While the internet offers a number of advantages, it’s also a place where we need to be very careful. Adolescents are in the process of transitioning to adulthood and this is the right time to learn about staying safe online.

This course was great! Was so interesting and enlightening to what a day in the wedding planning business will be like! It was so easy to do and easy to fit it around my work schedule. Taught me so much and has really given me an amazing feeling about starting my new career! I would highly recommend! Better than paying thousands to go back to college when you can do this in your own time at your own pace and still learn just as much, if not more! When completing this course, I felt proud and excited for my next steps so thank you so much New Skills Academy for helping me accomplish my big leap into starting a new adventure and finally doing something I love!

This is a good overview with useful hints and tips covering a broad range of administrative activities and the tools to assist in effectively carrying out these activities. Even as a seasoned administrator, I was able to learn new tips and functions within the tools that I was unaware of to make my role more effective.

Marinda Benskin

I really enjoyed this course. It allowed me to go at my own pace, completing modules in my lunch breaks or at home and you can do the modules as many times as you like which suited me.

The modules were explained well, included a clear step by step guide with a video and a spreadsheet to practice on which allowed me to learn the content in different ways. The module content was extremely valuable and taught me how to understand Excel which will lead to saving time in future projects needing Excel.

This course not only includes the very basics but explains some core Excel processes. I recommend this course to all abilities and anyone who needs to use Excel.

Gemma Bytheway

I was extremely worried at first that it wouldn’t be what I want in a course but the course is honestly absolutely amazing! It’s made to be really enjoyable, fun and easy to complete and best of all in your own time.

I could not recommend New Skills Academy any more! It’s now gave me something more to put on to my CV and get my career started in the area I’d love to be in for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for helping me reach my goals and achieve my dreams!

I’ve recommended to all of my friends and would also recommend to anyone looking into doing a course. Go for it you won’t regret it!

The course is simple and easy to follow, the videos are a great way to see it all in action, the pictures are a great way for you to get some inspiration too especially with the nail art. I have referred this course to a friend already.

I have a BA in Creative Writing, and I learned a lot from this course on the specifics of writing fantasy. With interesting subject matter and a worksheets that you can adapt for future writing, this course was absolutely worth the investment. It also allowed me to develop my teaching CV through its accredited certificate. I am looking forwards to incorporating some of the things I learned through the Fantasy Writing course in to my curriculum and classroom activities. If you have an interest in writing, or if you are an English teacher too, this series of courses are absolutely worth investing in.
