The Dx.SEA project's second Project Workshop brought together Southeast Asian stakeholders to collaborate on understanding and addressing the digital transformation needs of higher education institutions in the region. Hosted by the University of Granada, the workshop focused on reviewing the outcomes of the needs analysis and extended survey conducted by the university. It also involved verifying the identified needs with representatives from Malaysia, Cambodia, and Laos and finalizing the critical digital transformation priorities for those countries. Notably, the workshop provided a valuable opportunity for senior management staff from the University of Heng Samrin Thbongkhmum, UHST, to provide input on the focus areas that should be covered in the following training modules, including change management, digital learning, governance, and policy, and strategic planning and leadership for digital transformation. This collaborative process will help ensure the Dx.SEA project's training and support offerings are closely aligned with the specific needs and challenges higher education institutions across Southeast Asia face as they navigate their digital transformation journeys.
