What is this topic about?

Digital capabilities are the skills and attitudes needed to thrive in a digital society.

What it means to be digitally capable will vary for each person and is dependent on your subject specialism, career choice and personal context.

You will need to develop a certain level of digital capabilities during your studies at Arden University. Our resources, workshops and support can help you achieve the digital skills you need.

All Arden students have access to the Jisc Digital Capabilities Discovery Tool, an excellent resource to help you reflect on your own digital capabilities. It will produce a personal report which will help you to identify the areas you can develop to support you in your studies and in your career trajectory.
