    Digital Skills training sessions

    These two sessions are exclusive for SST’s new postgraduate students. This session is aimed at students who already have their University email and log in details so you can access our systems and platforms. The session includes a mixture of information sharing about the vital digital skills support available to you and time for you to practice using our systems and apps needed for study, including our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) Moodle, where you will be introduced to the Learning with Moodle module which will support you with your studies at City. The session will be run by the Student Digital Skills Team who will be on hand to support you and answer any digital support related questions you may have. Some students prefer to bring the device they will use for studying to the session (e.g. Laptop/tablet), however, there will be computers available in the room.
