This morning, Tony Bertrus and Marshall Hughes provided an overview of the elements and structure of online modules so individuals can attain digital literacy skills.
You are welcome to visit their site:

Based on one's prior knowledge and skills, individuals can complete the modules at a pace aligned with their needs and time commitment. It is anticipated that a participant will complete the modules in 20 hours or less.
These modules were produced through the support of the National Education Foundation.
