Benefit from innovative, digital teaching opportunities
Whether communication, production, trade or the world of work: the digital transformation has arrived almost everywhere. Only the universities and colleges follow this development only hesitantly. There is still little awareness of digital change, the need for lifelong learning and digital literacy. The consequence of this unwillingness to change and the lack of technical resources is a teaching offer that is no longer up to date.
