Digitisation of higher and vocational education institutions

Less administrative barriers for students and staff

Digital maturity

Typical digital maturity

Shows the level of digitalisation companies in this line of business typically operate at.

The assessment considers use of core systems, how far processes are digitalised, integrations, data readiness and advanced use of data.

A 3 means ordinary, middling maturity. A 5 is given only where real-time data, automated decisions and advanced optimisation are already a routine part of core operations.

Digitalisation potential

Shows the scale of business impact digitalisation could have in this line of business.

It weighs economic leverage, the scope for digital impact, the scale and repetition of processes, value lost today, and the leverage of better data and decisions.

A business area’s score is calculated from five weighted dimensions. A sector’s score is derived from the scores of its business areas.

Operating model

The higher education institution and vocational training centre combine different programs, practices and assessments. The program it is subject to and the official decisions made are important for the student's administration.

High School with Semester Studies

Students study according to the version of the program assigned to them, choose subjects and perform scheduled settlements. The institution tracks what requirements each one has yet to meet.

Vocational training institution with practical training

The training includes theoretical modules and practical tasks in a workshop or other work environment. The institution plans equipment, specialists and evaluates the work done according to the criteria.

Training with the employer

Part of the learning takes place in the workplace. The institution and the employer agree on tasks, a guide to practice and an assessment of the student's results.

Short Programme and MicroQualification Provider

The institution offers short programs for specific abilities. Participants are determined by the scope of learning, tasks and conditions of completion of the program.

Market context

The educational institution combines admission, study program, schedules and assistance needed by the student. Several units and employers of practice can participate in the studies. It is important for the student to understand the requirements and get a timely response, and for the employees to see who is responsible for the unfinished administrative or relief action.

  • Different study conditionsThe student's choices, credited subjects, and program version can alter his remaining requirements.
  • Practice and employer involvementWorkplace training needs to be combined with a partner, student and employee responsible for assessment.

Workflow and responsibilities

01

Program and Admissions

Identify the program's version, suitability and formal decision making.

04

Evaluation of the result

Checking the task or practical performance against the applied criteria and the right of the decider.

05

Digital maturity scale

1

Separate records and manual work

Information is mainly held in separate files or notes. Employees pass it on and reconcile it manually.

2

Organised data within individual teams

Teams record their work consistently, but sharing information with colleagues still requires considerable manual checking.

3

Partially integrated systems

Core work is managed in systems. Some information is transferred automatically, but repeated data entry remains.

4

Coordinated systems and teams

Systems deliver the required data on time. Employees can see unfinished work and know who is responsible for resolving discrepancies.

5

Continuous measurement and improvement

The team checks data quality, evaluates results and uses them to improve operations. Automation is applied where its value can be demonstrated.

Executive conclusion

The course of documents and requests can reduce administrative waiting. The coordination of practice and the timely need for assistance helps the student to continue learning according to the established requirements.
