Extra help from BT
If you want some help getting online or if you want to help someone else get online for the
first time, our Get IT Together scheme could be just the thing.
Get IT Together aims to help people discover the digital world with the help of a friend or
family member.
bt.com/getit has a range of tailor-made guides for helpers, making it easy for someone already
confident about using the internet to help you through the basic steps of getting online.
And we’ve included a selection of guides for beginners too, including what you might need
to get started.
Once you’ve gone through the basics, Get IT Together helps you to practice and explore the
internet, either on your own or with your helper. We’ll give you some ideas on what to do once
you’re online and offer a range of simple training courses, Online Basics. These are free and are
the perfect next step for you to practice what you’ve learnt.
The courses are provided by our partner, UK online centres, with around 3,800 sites all over the
UK where tutors and volunteers can help you complete the easy-to-use Online Basics courses
in person.
You can find your nearest centre in the ‘Getting online’ section at bt.com/getit
Get IT Together makes it really easy to unveil a whole new world.
