Last year, Jono Bredin took the big leap and moved out of his family home and started a motivational speaking business.
Jono lives with disability as a result of cerebral palsy and he requires a tablet for verbal communication. As part of this new career direction, Jono quickly realised that he’d need to harness all of the opportunities that digital media offered and build his digital literacy skills to be successful in his new role.

Each year National Reconciliation Week (27 May – 3 June) celebrates and builds on the respectful relationships shared by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and other Australians. National Reconciliation Week (NRW) marks two milestones in Australia’s reconciliation journey: the 1967 referendum and the historic Mabo decision.
NRW is good opportunity for all Australians to reflect on how we can be a part of the next big steps in our nation’s reconciliation journey.
Go Digi set out to help 300,000 Australians improve their digital skills.
