Language plays a crucial role in how we learn, communicate, and connect with others. In the digital age, ensuring that individuals can access training in their first language is essential to fostering inclusion and closing the digital divide. Many people, especially those from underserved communities, face additional barriers when digital training is only available in a language they’re less comfortable with.
To address this challenge, Community Tech Network is hosting a free webinar on September 26 at 11:00 AM PT titled Bilingual Training and Bridging the Digital Divide. This webinar is the latest installment in our monthly Lunch & Learn webinar series, where we dive into key issues surrounding digital inclusion and highlight best practices for creating inclusive learning environments.
During this session, a panel of expert digital skills instructors will share their experiences in providing bilingual education and the impact it has on helping individuals overcome digital literacy barriers. At CTN, we offer training, curricula, and products in over nine languages to ensure that everyone, regardless of language, can acquire the digital skills they need.
Our panel will discuss key strategies for tailoring training programs to meet the needs of diverse language learners. By sharing real-world examples of successful bilingual programs, they will illustrate how offering instruction in a person’s first language can make learning more accessible, engaging, and impactful.
Whether you’re a digital equity practitioner, educator, or someone passionate about fostering inclusive learning environments, this webinar will offer valuable insights into how bilingual education can transform the way we approach digital inclusion.
Don’t miss out on the opportunity to learn how you can bridge the digital divide through the power of language.
And as an added bonus, all webinar attendees will be entered into a raffle for a chance to win a free enrollment in our Teaching Internet Safety & Responsibility online course designed for digital equity practitioners.
