ucisa's Digital Capabilities Group aims to promote sharing of experience and good practice in IT training and skills development for both staff and students in UK higher education institutions. The Digital Capabilities Group is active in supporting events, reports and key surveys, such as the Digital Capabilities Survey, that can be used to inform the development of digitally capable students and staff. Membership, which entails contribution to the business of the group, is open to anybody in the academic community with an interest in the provision and management of IT training and user skills development. The Group is open to anyone involved in IT training and user skills development in UK higher and further education institutions. Speak with like-minded colleagues and peers, make connections and share best practice. To take part, join the Infrastructure Group's email list hosted by JISCmail.
