7. This presentation provides a quick and easy way of finding great professional
development resources from Microsoft and understanding how they deliver aspects of
the JISC digital capabilities framework. Our goal is to model a progressive pathway for
each of the personas found in academic institutions and this first presentation is
designed for lecturers, such as Abigail. Clicking on the Bronze, Silver or Gold icons
below will take you to a friendly overview of that “level”. Hover over the icons in each
“postcard” to click through to the associated digital capabilities or to the relevant
courses and resources from Microsoft. (Home pages for all the Microsoft resources
are here )
We hope our collaboration has produced a useful map and navigation for those
designing professional development in UK colleges and universities and we’d love your
feedback, to help us shape similar overviews for different roles.
