Digital and Data community-led learning
If you already work in digital and would like to develop your skills, are curious about the field, or are considering a government digital career, we have courses to help you get started or continue your development.
All our courses below are free to access on the FutureLearn platform, and are open to everyone. They are self-led, meaning that you learn at your own pace each week.
They have been developed in conjunction with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) across government to accurately reflect the responsibilities and function of each role in a government setting.
Getting Started
Awareness level introductory courses are aimed at people who are new to these areas or for those who have some knowledge, but would like to learn more about these roles within government.
Developing Further
Courses that follow and expand on key concepts introduced in the ‘Getting Started’ introductory courses.
You will learn through a mix of reading, completing tasks, and watching educational videos. You can keep track of your progress by taking quizzes and end-of-week tests, and by completing the learner tasks throughout the course.
Choose your topic to learn:
- Accessibility in Government
- Content Design in Government
- Product Management in Government
- User Research in Government
