Competences for the Future

The recording of the summit can be found here with exact timings of the sessions. For workshops recordings, please follow the links for the summit streams (Future, DigComp, Certification, Lessons, Heritage).

The ALL DIGITAL Summit is one of the leading public events in Europe on digital competences. It provides a unique platform where trainers and facilitators working for digital competence centres, ICT learning centres, adult education centres are joined by education and employability experts, private and public stakeholders, including policy makers, to exchange experiences and share knowledge, reflect together on strategies to expand the number of digitally literate citizens, while networking to identify new potential partners in future projects.

This year, inevitably, Covid-19 has not only determined the format of the event, but has also become the invisible thread that connects all the topics in the programme. This is not surprising, as historically pandemics have been precipitators of crisis and accelerators of change. A future that seemed near, but not yet close, has suddenly been thrust upon us: teaching and learning from home, working from home at a rate thought inconceivable before, finding ways to stay close to those we could not or cannot stay close to, acquiring skills that we never thought we would need.

A deep rethinking of what has been done so far, understanding this new world we are in; assessing which competences we will need the most to continue to thrive; how to improve skills on our own and the methods to help others improve theirs; how to increase the recognition by as many subjects as possible of the skills we have acquired – these thoughts have driven the choice of the ALL DIGITAL Summit’s theme “Competences for the Future” and the following four streams of subjects running through keynotes, panels, workshops, and lightning talks, i.e.:

  • Towards a version 2.2 of DigComp > DIGCOMP
  • The future of digital competence centres > FUTURE
  • Recognition of digital competence certificates in Europe > CERTIFICATION
  • Lessons learned during Covid-19 > LESSONS
