The course is free and aims to support trainees in developing new socio-professional and digital skills.

NAU, a platform for Distance Learning and Training for Large Audiences, operated by the FCCN unit of the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), within the scope of the Incode.2030 initiative and co-financed by SAMA, made the online course “Teleworking in Times of Isolation” available on May 8th.

This online course is an initiative of the Agency for Administrative Modernization (AMA) and aims to support the development of socio-professional and digital skills, as well as help balance family and professional life in a work-from-home context.

Over the past decade, the concept of the workplace has been moving away from its traditional one, and due to the circumstances imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, most of us were recently forced to swap our usual workstations for an improvised one at home. This sudden shift required the implementation of new work models and tools.

The free course has been available online since May 8th and lasts a total of 1 hour and 30 minutes. After completing the course, students will be able to: understand the main advantages and challenges inherent to teleworking; identify and apply productivity and motivation strategies in a remote work environment; learn about various tools and platforms to support remote work; learn how to plan and organize their day while teleworking; and understand the need for effective work-life balance.

At the end of the course, students will have the opportunity to test their acquired knowledge and simultaneously review the topics covered. They will be eligible for a certificate, which will be awarded for final grades equal to or higher than 50%.
