Abstract:
The digital transformation is one of the greatest challenges currently facing science, business and society. The lack of digitally qualified staff affects all Alliance organizations both acutely and equally. Rapid action is essential if this challenge is to be met. By pooling the strengths of the Alliance organizations it should be possible to find short or long-term solutions aimed at improving the situation for the whole academic system within a reasonable time-frame. Such cooperative solutions would impact the transition from school to university and beyond to include the time spent studying and acquiring qualifications, and continuing through to higher research training. The range of solutions could extend from the exchange of “good practice” examples through to the collective development of a range of offers, formats and strategies. There follows a description of the various challenges facing the academic system, together with details of the skills required to meet them, and the key features involved in the implementation process.
