RenSafe Online Safety Ambassador Training

Part of #DigiKnowVember

Delivered by: Renfrewshire Council

"If you live, work, volunteer or study in the Renfrewshire Council area and would like to help people learn how to spot potential online scams, protect themselves online and recognise if someone is at risk of online harm then why not become an accredited Online Safety Ambassador.

Many of us spend more time online these days, and some people feel very isolated, presenting more opportunities to become a victim of fraud.  As everyone expands their digital presence, the need for online safety is more crucial than ever, and this is your chance to protect and empower others.  

In partnership with Get Safe Online, our Online Safety Ambassador programme enables passionate individuals like yourself to take the lead in promoting safer online practices, both within your team and beyond.

By becoming an Online Safety Ambassador, you’ll:
•    Shape your own engagement: You get to choose how you engage with others, this could be within work, family, friends or community.
•    Raise Awareness: Help educate others on how to navigate the online world safely and responsibly.
•    Empower Others: Provide guidance and direct others to best practices for protecting personal information and prevent falling for online scams.

No experience? No worries! Full training and access to resources will be provided. You’ll have everything you need to confidently guide others, plus ongoing support from our growing ambassador community to help you thrive in this role.Block out your diary for 5th November 2024 and follow the link to register your interest by Thursday 31st October 2024
