BT Skills for Tomorrow

BT and Good Things Foundation are both committed to helping people in the UK develop their digital skills and confidence to improve their lives - by working together we can have an even bigger impact.

We know that the Online Centres Network are best placed to support individuals in their local communities who are socially and digitally excluded. Similarly, Learn My Way is a valuable resource to help people improve their basic digital skills.

The BT group - BT, EE, and Plusnet - has staff all over the UK. We hope to bring together the expertise and reach of the Online Centres Network and Learn My Way with BT’s activities and staff to help individuals feel more confident accessing and using the internet to support their needs from healthcare to benefits, to banking and beyond.

Together with the network we’ll be supporting people with no or low digital skills in specific towns and cities across the UK, to help them make the most of life. Our partnership will include:

• BT funding to help online centres deliver face to face digital skills training and support for individuals
• Partnering online centres with a nearby EE/BT store, BT Group contact centre or office to work together to support the local community with digital skills
• Promoting Learn My Way courses through the BT Skills for Tomorrow website so that people can learn anywhere and anytime they are able to access the internet
