Leadership for Digital Transformation Micro-Credential: French - More Details

Leadership, both within and beyond formal structures, is integral to higher education, spanning from faculty, staff, and administrators to executives. Despite titles, all can champion digital initiatives crucial for transformation. Full leadership potential is realized through mutual support; faculty need institutional backing for collaboration, while executives require institution-wide participation for strategic technology implementation.

As such, no experience in strategic leadership or digital transformation is required for this micro-credential. The program is designed to provide you with tactical tools, knowledge, and resources to lead and support digital transformation within your institution, regardless of your job title or prior experience.

You will be asked to use a digital project of your choice throughout the micro-credential. We recommend using a project that you are familiar with.  Previous project areas range from course design to employment services to employee recruitment. 

• Understand the necessity and applicability of Dx skills addressed within the program
