Amana Digital Skills
Learn. Practice. Build. Showcase. — Equipping young people with practical technology and digital career skills for the modern world.
Building digital capability for the modern world
Amana Digital Skills is a practical, hands-on technology program designed to close the digital skills gap for young people. Participants learn real, applicable skills — not just theory — and build actual projects that demonstrate their capabilities.
The program is built around the principle that digital skills are now foundational — as essential as literacy and numeracy — for participation in the modern economy and society.
Program Model
Why Digital Skills?
Digital literacy is no longer optional. Young people who lack digital skills are at risk of being left behind in education, employment and civic participation. AEC addresses this directly through practical, outcome-focused training.
Project-Based Learning
Participants don't just learn concepts — they build things. Every track culminates in a real project that participants can showcase to demonstrate their skills and knowledge.
Six areas of digital development
The program covers a comprehensive range of digital skills, from foundational literacy to specialist technical areas.
Digital Literacy
Core digital competencies — using devices, navigating the internet safely, understanding digital systems and responsible online behaviour.
Web Development
Introduction to HTML, CSS and JavaScript — building real web pages and understanding how the web works from the ground up.
Software Skills
Practical productivity and professional software — document creation, spreadsheets, presentations, project management tools and collaboration platforms.
AI Literacy
Understanding artificial intelligence, practical AI tools and their applications — how to use AI productively and ethically in everyday work and learning.
Digital Careers
Navigating the digital job market — building an online presence, creating a portfolio, understanding digital career pathways and preparing for tech-adjacent work.
Practical Projects
Every participant completes real projects — a website, a digital portfolio, a data analysis or an AI-assisted workflow — creating tangible proof of their skills.
