What awaits you
Bring in your digital skills and co-create practical solutions together.
In our IT & Digital programme, you support local schools, communities, institutions, or projects with digital and technical tasks. A key area is ICT Education – Information and Communication Technology. Here, you can help schools or communities teach basic digital skills and guide people in using computers and digital tools, depending on the local technical equipment available. Depending on the project, you might also get involved with websites, software, digital media, or other applications. You don't need to be an IT professional. If you already bring specialized skills, these can be taken into account when choosing and shaping your placement.
Your typical day
During the week, you will work hand-in-hand with the local team. Most projects start around 8:00 AM and wrap up by 3:00 PM. Depending on your placement, your day might involve teaching ICT classes, providing hands-on support, or tackling project-based digital tasks. Your weekends are entirely your own to explore.
