If the tablet or laptop is not a Windows or Android device, please note in the comments section at the end which device was used.

Are you concerned about being able to afford internet access?
On average, how often do you use the internet in general?
On average, how often do you use social media such as Facebook or Instagram?
On average, how often do you use email?
Do you know how to forward, reply to, and compose a message in email?
Let them know that, if they do not we’ll add that to their digital skills goals.
For those that use email ask: if you were to receive a new device – whether that is a phone, tablet, or laptop would you know how to set up your current email on that device?
Let them know that, if they do not we’ll add that to their digital skills goals.
We always include that last piece – internet safety – in each Digital Skills Success Plan, however, if you feel very confident in that area we will include a way that you can demonstrate that and earn a certificate before proceeding on with the rest of your plan.

Please check each that they ask to add, but add any that are not on this list to the open-ended goals question.

Do you know how to do you know how to get back to the main screen or window now?
Do you know how to adjust settings like volume and screen brightness?
Always assure them if they don’t know that we will make sure they know how to do these things as part of their plan.
Explain to the participant that NDEC will create a Digital Skills Plan for them which will include free classes and one-on-one sessions with their digital navigator. After they complete their plan, we ask that they have one final session with their Digital Navigator to review what they have learned, make sure that they know how to continue learning digital skills with NDEC, and let us know how the plan has helped them.
