Digital Literacy Learning Program - Batch 2

The SEC intends to capacitate the employees to become IT-savvy tactical and administrative operators for their principals. The purpose is to enable them to work with the use of digital technologies and gadgets, wherever they may be to address the immediate administrative concerns of their principals. In this way, the SEC is weaning them away from over-reliance on the IT department for IT-mediated tasks that go beyond mere computer proficiency.

This program is a pioneering effort, which requires a highly customized learning design and delivery to level-up the game of our SEC workforce. Competency-based, it is supposed to build up on the standard computer proficiency requirement (which means familiarity with the Microsoft suite: Excel, Word, and PowerPoint) and bring our SEC workforce into a much higher level of functionality and efficacy than ever before.
