We have delivered to a range of organisations including National Youth Council of Ireland, DCU, TUSLA, Libraries Ireland, UCD, Blossom, An Garda Síochána and Arts Council of Ireland.

With games like the latest release of hyperreal games like Cyberpunk 2077, we have come a long, long way from the days of Tank Attack, Pac Man and joysticks! This comprehensive session will take you on a tour through the often baffling world of gaming and equips you with the knowledge to make more informed decisions, by covering the positives and negatives of this now multi-billion dollar industry.
This talk is designed for parents or guardians of pre-teen and teenage children or adults interested in a general overview of the world of gaming.
The session is 60 minutes long and our interactive sessions are delivered by our trainers in person or live via our secure webinar platform.
In response to the times we live in and the spread of misinformation online, we have developed two brand new educational sessions – one for pupils and one for adults – based around the increasingly important skill of Digital Media Literacy.
These interactive sessions will look at:
The Parent/Teacher workshop is 60 minutes, and the Pupil session is aimed at 5/6th class and is 45 minutes long.
Sessions are delivered by our trainers in person or live via our secure webinar platform.
In this bespoke session we share our experiences at CyberSafeKids of having to move our educational programme from in-person delivery to online delivery in a matter of weeks at the beginning of the Covid-19 crisis.
The session will cover our story of how we managed this transition, the basic principles and pitfalls of delivering live, interactive content via webinar, as well as our initial failures and ultimate successes. We will also look at personal privacy for presenters, the online safety of participants and whether to adapt or rethink activities for the online space.
The session is designed for any organisation looking to apply key principles to effective online delivery and develop good ‘netiquette’ and safeguarding for their online programmes.
