The National Digital Equity Center provides digital skills training through 40+ classes organized around three curricula:

Our classes range in duration from one to three one-hour class sessions.  Classes can either be taken in an online, interactive format via Zoom or in-person at several locations throughout Maine.  Our class content and experienced instructors consistently maintain high student satisfaction ratings.

Classes are small groups in nature, ranging in size from 5-10 participants.  None of the online interactive classes are available in an on-demand pre-recorded format.  Classes are designed to allow participants to get their questions answered and master the skills they need to be successful in a digital world.

Classes are free to Maine residents.
