Digital enabling strategy

TLDRoffon

Following our 'Strategy into Action' sessions here we share our detailed vision and priorities for Digital.

Our vision will enable our community to be equipped with the essential tools to ensure we are creating impact for staff and students with the investment we are making – technology is nothing without our people and we want to ensure everyone has confidence in navigating our digital environment.
