PopCykol Internet Safety

Welcome to PopCykol’s Internet Safety Workshops!

This year, PopCykol is trying something new, and we’re excited to invite you along for the journey.

From March through November, PopCykol is hosting free monthly workshops focused on internet safety, digital well-being, and how our online lives affect our relationships. This first year is all about building community, sharing knowledge, and learning together.

Each session explores a new topic and covers the who, what, where, when, why, and how of internet safety through interactive games, activities, and open conversations that make learning approachable and engaging.

Below, you’ll find the monthly topics and event dates. A registration form is required for each attendee so we can plan accordingly. To keep things organized, only one event will open for registration at least three weeks before the event date.

Take a look, save the date, and join us! You can also sign up for th PopCykol Newsletter or follow us on social media for updates and more PopCykol news.
