This study reviews 86 studies related to DLTPs for marginalised populations in developed and developing countries. It aims to understand (a) the profile of DLTPs, (b) the digital competences incorporated in the training curriculum and (c) tangible outcomes of Internet use post-training. The review indicated that developed countries focus more on developing digital literacy in elderly populations. In contrast, the focus still lies on developing digital literacy among people with low skills and education levels in developing countries. The training curricula focus mainly on developing information-seeking and communication competencies, besides the basic operations of digital devices. Most of the studies reported an increase in the personal-level outcomes around health, leisure and self-actualisation achieved posttraining. This study can help policymakers, practitioners, and educational researchers improve the scope and quality of educational programs and contribute to people's digital empowerment and well-being.  \nKeywords  \nDigital Literacy; Training Program; Marginalised; Digital Divide; Internet Outcomes; Literature Review  \nH. Choundhary & N.Bansal  \nDigital Education Review-Number 41, June 2022 224  \nI. Introduction  \nWith the rising importance of information and communication technologies (ICTs), digital skills training plays an essential role in accomplishing the SDG target 4.4 by developing the relevant digital skills amongst people to gain appropriate employment, job or business (UNESCO, 2014) . According to a European Commission (2016) report, digital skills are needed in all types of jobs, including those that are not immediately related to digitisation, such as farming, construction, and vocational skills. Digital literacy pertains to an individual’s ability to locate, analyse, and draft clear information when writing and expressing it over various digital platforms (Bawden David, 2008; Boechler et al., 2015; Buckingham, 2010, 2015; Feerrar, 2019) . It has become mandatory for lifelong learning and democratic digital citizenship (El Mawas & Muntean, 2018; Lasić Lazić et al., 2020) . It relates to individuals’ socialisation and digital inclusion in the society (Gómez, 2020) .  \nHowever, in spite of the widespread adoption of digital technologies, digital inequalities persist in terms of ICT access, usage and skills, and outcomes, threatening the sustainable development of civil society (Khan et al., 2020; van Deursen & van Dijk, 2014; Van Dijk, 2012) . Of the estimated 3.7 billion unconnected people, most are women, girls and people living in remote and rural areas with low education and incomes (Agovino, 2019) . Intriguingly, the issue is not only about providing access to ICTs; instead, it is how digital technologies are used and empower an individual’s life. The type of tangible outcomes that Internet use may yield is a research area still developing (Helsper et al., 2015) . It is wavering to assume that digitally literate users will achieve tangible outcomes of Internet use; therefore, the nature of relations between skills, online participation, and offline tangible outcomes should be studied as factors that may differ among different sociodemographics across domains and fields of activity. This gap ultimately results in decreased living standards and social welfare (Avgerou & Madon, 2005) .  \nDigital literacy training programs (DLTPs here","cbCaio5eppsZzMrc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaio5eppsZzMrc","pdf",290308,25,"English","# Introduction\n# Prior Literature Review","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this systematic literature review of DLTPs?\",\"answer\":\"The review aims to describe DLTP profiles, identify digital competences built into training curricula, and assess tangible outcomes of internet use after training for marginalised populations.\"},{\"question\":\"Which groups receive greater emphasis in developed vs. developing countries?\",\"answer\":\"Developed countries focus more on developing digital literacy among elderly populations, while developing countries still emphasize people with low skills and education levels.\"},{\"question\":\"What kinds of competencies and outcomes do the reviewed DLTP curricula and studies highlight?\",\"answer\":\"Curricula mainly target information-seeking and communication competencies plus basic operations of digital devices.
