Each drop-in has a different theme and you can come to whichever are most helpful for you.

Students looking to strengthen their digital skills are invited to attend a new series of Digital Skills drop-ins, designed to help you develop the knowledge and confidence needed for academic success and employability.

Running throughout November and December, these informal sessions offer personalised advice and guidance on a range of digital skills topics, from understanding how to use digital tools effectively and critically, to identifying areas for further development and accessing additional support.

Who the drop-ins are for

The drop-ins are open to all University of Bath students, regardless of your course, year of study or current level of digital confidence.

Whether you're exploring how digital skills can enhance your employability, looking for guidance on using generative AI responsibly in your studies, or wanting to improve your digital creativity and presentation skills, the sessions provide an opportunity to get tailored support from experienced advisors.

No booking required

There is no need to book in advance. You can simply attend the sessions that are most relevant to you and speak with an advisor during the drop-in.

The sessions are designed to be flexible, giving you the chance to ask questions, discuss your development goals, and discover further opportunities to build your digital skills.

Please note that these drop-ins focus on digital skills development and guidance rather than software-specific technical support.
