Would this help against computer illiteracy?

Would this work to improve computer illiteracy?

"Every adult in Scotland is being offered up to RM750 to develop and improve their computer skills."

Of course, money is needed to start understanding a computer and how to handle a computer, surfing the web and so on.

But is money everything? The article doesn't provide a lot of detail and background to the story, but besides improving computer skills, isn't it more important to provide an understanding of the opportunities, a computer and a connection to the Internet can provide?

Anyway, not much can be done nowadays without computer skills, and thus, it is a start - if it doesn't just drive the revenues of training schools.
