This new course highlights the growing importance of equipping educators with the skills needed to navigate and shape the digital transformation of education and society. By making the course available in multiple languages, UIL ensures that adult educators from diverse world regions can participate and benefit from this learning opportunity.

'In today's rapidly evolving world, digital competencies are essential for full participation in a text- and technology-mediated society. Literacy educators are at the forefront of helping youth and adult learners adapt to these changes and harness the opportunities digital technologies offer for lifelong learning. This course is therefore a vital resource in strengthening their capacity and supporting inclusive digital transitions,' emphasized Isabell Kempf, UIL Director, during the launch.

Course objectives:

• Build capacity to create engaging learning materials and environments using digital tools, fostering curiosity and inspiration among learners.
• Advance their professional development by exploring the latest in educational technology, including AI, and its application for continuous learning.

The course features eleven sessions, allowing educators to progressively enhance their digital knowledge and skills in a flexible, self-paced format.
