Make a plan with your coach on which tasks you will perform to master the following skills: 
recognizing simple digital services to participate in society; 
recognizing simple, appropriate digital technologies to increase your self-reliance and participate in society as a citizen.

Examples to develop these skills:
In our increasingly digital society, it is essential to be well aware of simple digital services that can help you actively participate in society and increase your self-reliance. An example of such a digital service is DigiD, which gives you access to various online government services such as applying for benefits or viewing your personal data with the government. It is important to know how to apply for a DigiD and how to use it to log in safely and reliably.
In addition, there are also many simple digital technologies that can help you become more self-reliant and participate more in society. Think, for example, of using online learning platforms to develop new skills, searching online for information about health and well-being, or using social media to stay in touch with friends and family.
It is important to know how to use these technologies in a safe and responsible way and what opportunities there are to further develop your digital skills. By mastering these simple digital skills, you increase your opportunities to actively participate in society and increase your self-reliance.

But that's not all - increase the value of your badge by adding your learning process and achievements to it. This enables potential employers to gain a better understanding of your digital skills.
