Unlocking the potential of digital learning: harnessing technological advancement to solve issues faced by further education institutions

This report provides the results of a study conducted with 26 further education centres in the UK to find out about the key issues they currently faced. The study sought to understand their concerns for the future, any obstacles blocking the efficiency of their training delivery, as well as their attitude towards digital tools. A key concern is the pressure to maintain high quality with limited resources. The general consensus reveals that while digital tools are welcome, some find it difficult to integrate them into their delivery. Furthermore, the study found that colleges are not reaping the full benefits of these tools. The report looks at how maximising digital tools to their full potential transforms learning environments. It presents a digital toolkit designed to support educators in overcoming the challenges highlighted in this survey.
