"Digital Intelligence (DQ) is the sum of social, emotional, and cognitive abilities essential to digital life. It is having the necessary knowledge, skills and ability to adapt one’s emotions and adjust one’s behaviour to deal with the challenges and demands of the digital era.

These values enable the wise and responsible use of technology – an attribute which will mark the leaders of tomorrow."

And they join a vast array of specialist communities that help them improve their skills, from knitting, to drawing, to managing their finances.
