Nos alegra compartir con ustedes los logros alcanzados en el Taller de Habilidades Digitales durante este 2024.

Este taller es una actividad fundamental del Centro de Formación para el Trabajo de la Fundación Multipolar, ya que tiene como objetivo principal brindar herramientas prácticas y actualizadas a las personas en situación de calle que participan del programa, para mejorar su calidad de vida y promover su inclusión social y laboral.

¿Qué hicimos en el taller?
Con la participación de 15 personas por cohorte, desarrollamos un espacio de aprendizaje práctico en el manejo de dispositivos digitales y plataformas virtuales. Este taller no solo les permitió adquirir conocimientos básicos sobre tecnología, sino también ganar confianza en sus habilidades para enfrentar los desafíos del mundo laboral actual.

Ejes temáticos trabajados:

  1. Introducción a la tecnología: ¿Qué es una computadora y cuáles son sus componentes?
  2. Entorno de Windows: Cómo navegar en el sistema operativo y organizar archivos.
  3. Procesadores de texto: Uso de Microsoft Word para redactar y editar documentos básicos, como un currículum.
  4. Google Apps: Creación de cuentas en Gmail, uso de Google Drive y manejo de Documentos para compartir y almacenar información.

Tenemos grandes objetivos para el 2025 que esperamos poder lograr.

¡Juntos hacemos la diferencia!
Gracias por ser parte de esta transformación. Tu apoyo continuo nos permite construir un mundo más justo y con más oportunidades para quienes más lo necesitan.

We are pleased to share with you the achievements of the Digital Skills Workshop during 2024.

This workshop is a key activity of the Work Training Center, as its main goal is to provide practical and up-to-date tools to individuals experiencing homelessness, taking part in the program, to improve their quality of life and promote their social and professional inclusion.

What did we do in the workshop?
With 15 participants per cohort, we developed a hands-on learning environment focused on managing digital devices and virtual platforms. This workshop not only allowed participants to acquire basic knowledge about technology, but also helped them build confidence in their abilities to face the challenges of today’s job market.

Key topics covered:

  1. Introduction to Technology: What is a computer, and what are its components?
  2. Windows Environment: How to navigate the operating system and organize files.
  3. Word Processors: Using Microsoft Word to draft and edit basic documents, such as a resume.
  4. Google Apps: Creating Gmail accounts, using Google Drive, and managing Google Docs to share and store information.

We have ambitious goals for 2025 that we hope to achieve.

Together, we make a difference!

Thank you for being part of this transformation. Your continued support allows us to build a fairer world with more opportunities for those who need it most.
