iDEA is a program that helps you develop digital, enterprise and employability skills for free through a series of online challenges.
The Duke of York Inspiring Digital Enterprise Award is an accredited national programme.
You can win career and life enhancing badges, unlock new opportunities and, ultimately, gain industry recognised awards that help you stand out from the crowd.
iDEA is about lifelong learning, for anyone who wants to develop their skills.
Learners include young people, apprentices, business leaders, pensioners, students and community groups.
Of course! iDEA allows you to upskill your pupils and prepare them for the digital workplaces of the future. It is a great way to excite and motivate young learners and it links in with the school's ICT curriculum, enabling pupils to apply new skills while they learn and communicate online, in a fun and safe way.
We know there will be a greater emphasis on digital skills in the future and we want to equip Chorley's younger generation with the right digital skills from an early age so they can unlock new opportunities.
