As part of our commitment to improve the digital skills of
CalMac employees we are now offering a free digital skills check to every employee,
this will be done in partnership with Inverness College using the ICT Now tool
from BKSB Live which is a leading functional skills auditing tool.
Initially we will offer the IT Basics section of the package
and once complete other sections will be made available including Health,
Safety and Security, Internet, Email, File Management, Word Processing,
Spreadsheets, Presentations and Databases. Learning resources will be made
available through BKSB Live for learners to improve their skills in areas where
they need to.
By taking part in the audit it will give
employees the opportunity to get an accurate report of their own level of
digital skills and allow us to develop leaning solutions to best suit the needs
of each individual employee. The initial IT Basics check will take 20 minutes
to complete and all we need for you to take part is your name, email address,
date of birth (for password purposes) and your work location, please send these
details to union.learning@davidmacbraynehr.co.uk or d.henderson@rmt.org.uk
