A brilliant day in Westminster celebrating Click Start✨
We brought together partners, policymakers and learners to mark the impact of Click Start — our national digital skills programme, funded by Nominet.
Hosted by @danaldridgemp , the event shone a spotlight on the people and partnerships behind the programme — and the real journeys it’s helped unlock.
💙 Nearly 39,000 learners supported across the UK
🚀 New skills, confidence and pathways into work
Hearing directly from learners in Parliament was a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we work together at scale. And as Dan Aldridge MP put it — Click Start is a “trailblazing” programme opening up opportunities in tech.
Huge thanks to our partners, our learners, and everyone making this impact happen 🙌

Learning tech doesn’t have to feel overwhelming 🤯
These AI tools make it way easier to understand, practice, and stay organised:
🤖 ChatGPT — explains coding in plain English, helps debug errors, and breaks big problems into small steps. Basically a patient tutor that never gets tired.
🧠 GitHub Copilot — suggests code as you type and helps you learn patterns faster. Not a shortcut… more like training wheels.
🔎 Perplexity AI — perfect for tech research. Direct answers with sources so you skip the Google rabbit hole.
🗂️ Notion AI — organises notes, summarises lessons, and turns messy ideas into clear study plans.
🎓 Khanmigo — teaches by asking questions back instead of just giving answers. Old-school learning, upgraded with AI.

Most people think systems thinking is just about understanding how everything connects.
But the real shift — the one that takes you from junior to senior — is learning to think beyond the immediate moment.
It’s not just:
🔹 “How do we get results?”
It’s also:
🔹 “What happens after?”
🔹 “What if we don’t act?”
🔹 “What are the unintended consequences?”
🔹 “Where is the bottleneck that actually matters?”
That’s what separates task-doers from strategic operators.
That’s where career growth really happens.
If you’re trying to level up, start training your brain to look around corners — not just at what’s in front of you.

✨ Vibe coding is Collins Dictionary’s Word of the Year 2025 ✨
It means creating apps and websites by simply describing them to AI — no coding required.
Think: “Make me a program that plans my weekly meals” 🍽️💻 AI does the rest.
From “forgetting the code even exists” to “giving in to the vibes,” vibe coding is changing how we think about creativity, tech, and accessibility.
Would you trust AI to code your next big idea? 👀
