In a forward-thinking effort to prepare servicemen for the modern world, The Punjab Regimental Centre in Ramgarh, in collaboration with the Army Welfare Organisation and the Learning Links Foundation, recently concluded a 40-hour training program designed to enhance digital literacy. The workshop, which specifically targeted soldiers nearing retirement, covered key skill areas such as cyber safety, financial literacy, and soft skills.
A total of 32 soon-to-retire soldiers participated in the interactive sessions that offered practical guidance on everyday digital tasks. From understanding secure online transactions to effectively managing personal finances, participants gained insights aimed at smooth transitions into civilian life. Organizers emphasized the growing importance of adaptability, given the rapid evolution of technology and the increasing reliance on digital platforms in routine activities.
Beyond computer proficiency and online security, soldiers also practiced communication strategies and interpersonal skills, recognizing that soft skills are vital for post-service career growth. By the end of the workshop, participants expressed confidence in applying their newly acquired knowledge to navigate modern challenges more effectively.
The success of this initiative underscores the commitment of The Punjab Regimental Centre and its partnering organizations in supporting soldiers’ lifelong learning, ensuring they remain empowered and prepared for the ever-evolving digital landscape.
