The Internet Safety Awareness Course helps people learn how to use mobile phones and the internet safely, with a focus on protecting children and young people. Learners will look at how most teenagers (about 95%) use smartphones every day (Pew Research, 2023) and how this affects the way they talk and connect with others.

It also explains how some adults use social media, games, and apps to target and trick young people, and why many young people don’t speak up—often because they feel scared or ashamed.
