Workshops to offer parents digital, online guidance

Parents and guardians can learn more about artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and related topics during a series of free workshops starting next week.

A government spokeswoman said the Office of Youth Affairs had launched the six-part series, “Parental Ctrl: Parenting in a world that never logs off,” to help with the challenges of raising children in an increasingly digital world.

Sloane Johnson, of Oath International, will present each workshop at Prospect Primary School in Devonshire from November 18 to March 31.

A spokeswoman said: “Through engaging discussions, practical guidance and real-world examples, the series aims to equip families with the tools to establish healthy boundaries, encourage open communication and foster positive relationships with technology.”

The first session will address healthy online habits and being “screen smart”, while the second on December 9 will highlight cybersecurity.

A January 13 session will centre on healthy social media habits, while the topic for February 10 is growing up in a digital world.

March 3 will explore what parents should know about AI, and the last session on March 31 will address digital literacy and emerging technology.

Each workshop is set to run from 6pm until 7.30pm. Free dinner and childcare will be provided for participating families.

Those interested in attending can register via a Google Form or contact youthpolicy@gov.bm or 246-9100 for more information.
