TIM has launched a new digital education project, 'Operation Digital Renaissance' that will involve 1 million Italian citizens with training courses throughout all 107 Italian provinces.
TIM Academy will lead a rich training program that involves more than 400 TIM coaches who will deliver over 20 thousand hours of teaching by the end of 2020, engaging associations, local social and meeting centres, sports clubs and senior centres, to spread the digital skills needed to take advantage of the great opportunities offered by the Internet.
The focus will be on those who have been left out of the digital economy and are in greater need of support in learning how to surf the web, communicate and access useful digital PA services such as sending certified emails, changing general practitioner, or paying bills online). Classes designed specifically for SMEs will also be hosted at the TIM Academies.
TIM’s tour will travel throughout the country, stopping in municipalities with a population of between 10k and 60k for 3-week long courses on digital. A “mobile school” will be parked in the main squares of the municipalities to inform and involve citizens and businesses with dedicated coaching.
Luigi Gubitosi, CEO, TIM
We are proposing a great path of digital inclusion, so that no one is left behind when it comes to having the knowledge and the skills necessary to take advantage of the numerous opportunities that the ongoing digital transformation presents us in our everyday life.
