E-Safety: Online Safety Training Course

There are several ways to ensure your safety online including reading helpful hints, tips and blog articles to inform the decisions you make whilst browsing online.

We offer an e-safety course which will not only help you keep yourself safe online but will also provide information to help those you are responsible for at home and at work.

Internet safety courses can be completed online or face to face and are designed to improve your knowledge on how to keep safe online.

Our online internet e-safety course will help you understand the dangers associated with the internet such as cyber bullying, online abuse such as grooming, sexting and how to report abusive online behaviour.

E-safety means electronic safety and covers keeping you safe not just on the internet but on all electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptops, tablets and much more.

If you are not 100% satisfied with your course then we offer a 30-day, no hassle money-back guarantee.

This online course consists of a series of pages in which an instructor will talk learners through the lesson material. Pages may include supporting pictures, graphs, animation or extra sounds to help with the learning where appropriate. Some lessons will include challenges/quizzes to help learners stay engaged and interested in the material. Lessons can be taken in any order and each lesson may be paused and resumed at any stage.

The course is self-paced so learners decide how fast or slow the training goes. There is no deadline for completion but some of our courses have a test at the end to check that learners have understood the material. If the course has a test at the end then learners are required to achieve a 75% pass mark to successfully complete the course. Once learners have passed the test they are awarded a certificate, which can either be downloaded digitally or sent as a physical copy if this option was chosen when purchasing the course.

Upon completion of any of our courses, learners will be able to download a digital certificate from Virtual College which will include the accrediting bodies logo where applicable, the learner's name, the title of the course and the date of completion.

If you have purchased the posted certificate option, available on selected courses, a high quality, seal embossed, certificate will be sent out the following working week after completion.
