Given the importance of digital literacy skills to under-represented populations, MediaSmarts and YWCA Canada have partnered to develop and deliver DigitalSmarts, a digital literacy skills program.

The DigitalSmarts program is a series of eight hour-long workshops designed to teach important everyday digital skills. The workshops include hands-on activities and videos and cover topics such as:

- protecting privacy and security online
- job searching
- shopping and banking online
- using social media
- searching the internet effectively
- managing screen time for kids

Joining us today to talk about DigitalSmarts is Marc Alexandre Ladouceur, Media Education Specialist with MediaSmarts.
