About this webinar

Confidence in using technology is becoming an increasingly important part of care work. 75% of people working in adult Social Care believe it's vital to their career progression.

Meanwhile, half of employers feel that school leavers are entering the workplace with insufficient digital skills.

Hear from our expert panel as they ask:

  • What more can the industry do to accelerate knowledge sharing and facilitate informal learning? How can modern systems support that goal and what are the challenges involved?
  • What inspiration can we take from the way the biggest consumer technologies interact with and support their users that might help us build digital confidence within the care workforce?
  • Is there more we can do to reduce the learning curve when staff are required to become familiar with new tech?
  • How can providers and suppliers work collaboratively to ensure that expertise in implementing and administering systems isn't confined to a small number of internal 'experts'?
