About DSEW 3.0

The Digital Skills, Education, and Workforce Development (DSEW) program invests in initiatives that focus on improving introductory-level digital skills or providing access to advanced digital skills training for employment. The program’s workforce goal is to fund organizations that provide access to advanced digital skills training and employment opportunities using those new skills.

• Digital Skills: Digital Skills is defined as anything focusing on basic/foundational digital skills such as online safety, device usage, internet navigation, and others.
