A word from our learners

DSF’s course changed the way I approach teaching. My students are now more engaged and excited about learning in the digital age.

My students happily engage in learning with frequent video use, making classes more enjoyable. Thanks to DSF skills, I’ve created “ICT TO ALL by JOSEPHA,” a YouTube channel sharing ICT classes.

Completing my Digital Competency Passport has allowed me to now be more effective, productive, and most importantly, to understand how to avoid dangers for myself for the company!
