Setting the Strategy
DOWNLOAD NOW
For years, digital transformation had been little more than an aspiration for many colleges and universities. Then came the pandemic, forcing the quick adoption of online learning, remote work, and even operating labs from a distance. Now, as hopes of a return to normalcy are growing, how should colleges set the strategy for using technology moving forward? And how can they continue the momentum of the past few years to continue implementing long-awaited updates?
A panel of CIOs and college leaders met with The Chronicle's Ian Wilhelm to discuss their recommendations for the path forward. Read highlights from their discussion in the new Key Takeaways, Digital Transformation: Setting the Strategy.

How can colleges work to increase equity in access to technology? Computing labs, loaner programs, and supporting students with whatever technology they have — flexibility is key.
What does digital transformation mean to institutions? Digital transformation alone isn’t a strategy. It’s about enabling and supporting a larger strategy, such as student success.
What is the benefit of becoming a “digital university”? While online learning offers flexibility, the digital classroom also enables faculty to extend the amount of time spent with students outside of a traditional, face-to-face class.
How can colleges solve the idea gap in higher ed? Finding great ideas is rarely a problem, but bringing them to fruition can be. Implementing pilot programs and then scaling up can help colleges start small rather than becoming overwhelmed.
