Kids today have never known a world without the internet. And the majority of youth 0-5 will grow up to have jobs that don't exist yet. Even the most in-tune parents could use some extra tips for keeping up with the accelerating pace of technological and societal change.

Together we'll address the biggest concerns parents have: introducing screen time, managing appropriate content, online gaming, and role model appropriate forms of online communicating. Backed by the latest research and full of practical tips, Common Sense’s Digital Media 101 training will provide you with tools you need to keep families safe and help them take ownership of their digital lives
