DIGAD

DIGAD, Digital competence for administrative staff in Västerbotten The project objective is to increase the digital competence of employees in municipal administration and to strengthen the organization's ability to lead and implement digital change. Digitalisation is a strong force of change in society and public administration personnel need to develop their digital skills to be relevant in the labor market and to be able to co-create in the digital transformation that the public sector faces. The project will analyze the need for digital competence, both at an individual level, and in the form of a model where the outcome of activities can be evaluated based on indicators in a so-called value-chain. The education effort concerns staff in fifteen smaller municipalities in the county of Västerbotten and Norrbotten. The learning resources produced and used in the project will be web-based, open and accessible to all. Increased digital skills give the individual employee the prerequisites for professional development and the ability to contribute to an innovative local government, which in turn can assure the wellfare of the future by using the potential of digitalisation.
