As notified in the UGCF 2022 VAC pool and taught in 2025-26, Digital Empowerment is a 2-credit VAC (1 lecture +1 practical) that moves in four blocks: Digital inclusion and the Vision of Digital India — DigiLocker, E-Hospitals, e-Pathshala, BHIM, e-Kranti and portals for RTI, health, finance and tax filing — then Communication and Collaboration (email, blogs, social media, file-sharing, messaging and video conferencing), then Safe and Secure Cyberspace (privacy, data breach, cyber attacks, Blockchain and government security initiatives) and finally Ethical Issues including netiquettes. A DU-specific requirement on page 12 that most students miss is the 15-week practical: interactive demonstrations, workshops on Digital India services, outreach to street vendors, domestic help, security guards and senior citizens, and team projects on education, health, farming and financial inclusion. The paper feels easy, so students cram definitions and write paragraphs where the syllabus asks for steps — for example, exact steps to collaborate on Drive or secure a transaction.
