Adult educators are on the frontline of digital safety, and adult learners need to be aware.
Cybercrime in Australia is surging, with more than 84,700 incidents reported in 2024–25. That is one every six minutes. Scams and identity fraud increasingly target people with lower digital confidence, including many vulnerable learners.
To support educators and volunteers, particularly in Neighbourhood Houses and Community Centres, ALA has developed a FREE Cybersecurity Literacy program.
This is a self-paced professional development program on Moodle designed for staff and volunteers in adult and community education. It includes practical activities, resources and more.
Funded through the Federal Government’s Act Now, Stay Secure campaign, the program will help educators strengthen learner confidence and reduce online risks.
Join us in empowering safer digital communities.
