We’re thrilled to share that we’ve lowered the price of our device training curriculum to better support our partners, trainers, and learners in today’s economic environment.
Unlike some providers who shrink their offerings but charge the same, we’ve kept our full, professionally-developed curriculum intact—just at a more accessible price. Our licensed curriculum catalog is available for viewing here. Remember that there is no limit to the number of learners you train, and there’s no limit to the amount of time you’re able to use it. Once you purchase it, it’s yours to keep.

We Asked, You Answered
A big thank-you to everyone who completed our recent survey—we received nearly 60 responses! As a token of appreciation, we gave away courses to Sister Carmen Community Center, Access Alliance, Santa Cruz Public Library, Can Code Communities, and Broadband Institute Foundation. The survey results shed light on where the need for digital inclusion is greatest, with top representation from education and training, digital literacy, advocacy, and libraries. Respondents shared that their work most often serves low-income individuals, older adults, and people with low literacy. The biggest challenges identified were limited funding for digital programs, low digital literacy among community members, and lack of affordable internet access — clear reminders of the barriers many face in fully participating in today’s digital world.
