Induction for Students
The Digital Essentials induction provides new students with the core digital skills you need to study at Cardiff Met.
You will learn about the technologies and digital practices that enable you to undertake your studies remotely and in person.
The induction explores essential systems such as Moodle, email, our app store, managing your documents and Microsoft Teams – the digital communication platform that will be central to your learning.
Here’s what you need to do:
- Complete and pass the Digital Essentials induction e-lesson.
- Attend and complete the Introduction to Teams and Managing Documents at Cardiff Met training sessions that build upon the induction e-lesson.
You can complete the Digital Essentials e-lesson any time – it should only take about 25 minutes. We suggest completing it before you arrive at Cardiff Met.
You can also sign up for the two training sessions. These will be held through a Microsoft Teams meeting in Welcome Week and during the first two weeks of term.
