Safe Online

Practical digital resilience workshops, for yourself and for your family.

A program by Vision Tree vzw for Daikin Europe employees in Ostend, in autumn 2026.

Feel the pressure? Pause.

What it's about

Most people know they shouldn't just click on a link. And yet it happens. Scammers play on fear, urgency, trust and shame, and in that moment you react before you think.

In Safe Online, participants learn to recognize that pressure and to counter it with a pause. Without fear and without jargon, using examples everyone recognizes: the suspicious message, the fake webshop, the so-called bank employee on the phone.

Vision Tree works at the intersection of psychology and technology. That's why these workshops cover not only what to do, but also why we sometimes fall for the trap anyway.

How it works

  • Three-hour workshops, with a maximum of fifteen participants per group.
  • Participants immediately make their own phone more secure: WhatsApp PIN, two-factor authentication, password manager.
  • Exercises with real examples, a role play and quizzes.
  • Everyone takes the Safe Online card home.
  • All lessons stay online for at least a year, to reread and share with the family.
