What we do
NetSavvy’s training packages and services are designed to help all internet users understand how to spot false information, keep their personal information private, and protect themselves against online scams and other cyberthreats. We don’t use complicated cybersecurity speak and technical jargon. We break it down and equip you with practical skills to improve your online privacy, safety and security.
We customise our workshops for a variety of internet and social media users – from students, young adults and millennials to those who only started using the internet and social media in their 30s, 40s or even later. Book a workshop for your employees, colleagues, students or group of friends. We'll come to you if you would like us to do a workshop at a venue of your choice, whether it be your offices, university, school or retirement village.
