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.

Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

The course is broken down into 2 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

Once you have completed all 2 modules there is a multiple choice test. The questions will be on a range of topics found within the 2 modules. The test, like the course, is online and can be taken a time and location of your choosing.

The pass mark for the test is 70%.

If you don’t pass the test first time you will get further opportunities to take the test again after extra study. There are no limits to the number of times you can take the test. All test retakes are included within the price of the course.

We estimate that the course will take about 1.25 hours to complete in total, plus an additional 30 minutes for the end of course test.

Once you have been awarded your certificate it is valid for life. The certificate does not expire or need renewing.

I am so impressed with this course. For starters it was hugely discounted which saved me money, secondly it is really easy to use. It is jam packed with information yet so easy to follow and they layout is very clean, clear and precise. I have learnt so much from this course already and I can even revisit modules as and when I need to. If you are an aspiring Makeup Artist, then this course will definitely lead you on the right path and it teaches you how to deal with clients and how to get the best out of your career.

At age 44, I took a notion to start a new career, so I booked a Travel & Tourism online course with New Skills Academy.

I was actually pretty nervous when I looked at the modules as it’s been years since I studied!

I was pleasantly surprised at how well the course flowed and how uncomplicated it was. The presentation of the course was easy to read and understand.

When I got to the final test, I was nervous, but had no need to be. It was a general test of knowledge and I passed with 70%. I feel proud!

Angela Wilson

This course is incredibly helpful and easy to understand to start off a career in event planning. The case studies give you an insight into the real world of this role and not just the "shiny exterior". I'm loving this course and cannot wait to use the knowledge that I have gained in the [hopefully not so distant] future!

Leanne Dormer

Fantastic online course. Very informative, easy to follow sessions with a test facility at the end of each session. You can complete this at your own pace any time of day or night, without any pressure and there is even help if you need it with tutors online.

I would highly recommend New Skills Academy to anyone looking to gain a qualification but needs time to complete the course or cannot attend classes. I look forward to completing many more courses with you shortly. A great way of learning new skills, as the name of the company suggests with a recognised qualification.

Thank you New Skills.

This was a brilliant course that was easy to understand and fits into your lifestyle by being able to access at times that suits you. I needed a refresher course and this ticked all the boxes. One area which I was not aware of was the Employment Allowance Incentive but I now understand this fully. It is also good information on record keeping along with Data Protection. I highly recommend this course and it doesn't have to be expensive to do. The fact that you get a Diploma Certificate at the end only enhances your CV and gives you a sense of satisfaction.

Donna Raynes

Amazing! New Skills Academy has helped me shape my life and improve my understanding of my chosen course, so simply and now I am that one step closer to achieving my goal. Such a simple yet professional system and easy to learn from.

Would and will recommend to friends and family. A great way to learn without the price tag of going to University and saves a lot of time. Super easy to set up. 5 Star rating throughout the whole experience.

Going to buy my sister the same course for a birthday gift, which is a great offer that they do.
