Digital change is cultural change!!
developing technology is easy
making the most out of it… not always!
Survival checklist
1. Is your IRO monitoring these developments and has a digital strategy
with clear milestones?
2. Is your university leadership aware of the challenges ahead?
3. Has your IT team carried out a needs analysis and adjusted their work
plan accordingly? (if applicable)
Top tips
1. Internal staff trainings will likely be key to ensure a smooth transition
2. Involve students when adjusting your workflows – their opinion
matters
3. Let you partners know you are going digital and that you expect
them to do the same!
