Vodafone helps SMEs enhance online skills
Over a million small and medium sized businesses across the UK have upskilled their digital capabilities thanks to the free business guidance and training available from Vodafone via platforms such as V-Hub.
The V-hub platform, which recently celebrated its third birthday, provides free access to training, tools, and an in-depth knowledge centre. Through V-hub users also have access to free one-to-one expert guidance from a V-Hub business expert either online or over the phone. Training covers everything from setting up a business, finding new customers online and protecting yourself from cyber-threats.
The most popular courses on the V-hub platform are Tips for Businesses During the Cost-of-Living Crisis and Steps to Digitally Transform your Business, Most Common Security Threats with businesses based in Birmingham, Kent, London, Manchester and West Berkshire the most prevalent visitors to V-hub.
The V hub forms part of Vodafone’s everyone.connected initiative which aims to help 4 million people cross the digital divide by 2025.
Vodafone Business Ambassador and The Diary Of A CEO Podcast host Steven Bartlett said: “Without guidance and support I would not be where I am today. What I love about Vodafone’s free V-Hub service is that it gives you access to resources, workshops and webinars and you can speak to a team for 1:1 guidance – it’s pretty incredible. A huge congratulations to the Vodafone V-Hub team on hitting the 1 million milestone and happy 3rd birthday – keep doing what you’re doing!”
Nick Gliddon, UK Business Director, Vodafone said: “I am really pleased that we are marking the milestones of V-Hub 3rd birthday and it helping 1 million business in the UK. Vodafone has a central belief that UK businesses should be supported to ensure they have the right technology and the right skills to fully enjoy the benefits of a digital economy. That over a million SMEs across the UK have used V-Hub to upskill their digital capabilities, take personal 121 advice or just use the knowledge centre for advice on security and cost of living shows how valuable and needed this service is. I would also like to thank our partner Enterprise Nation for all their commitment, passion and advice in making this happen.”
Vodafone’s V-Hub provides free expert knowledge and guidance, and a constantly evolving range of resources and training for starting and growing a digital business. The one-to-one digital support from a business V-Hub adviser can cover a range of topics from how to build an online presence to managing online security risks.
