    Are you digitally fluent?

    SQA partner organisation Jisc, is actively looking for people to undertake a survey to assess their digital literacy/fluency. Fully anonymised data will be shared with SQA and used for future engagement work with Academy users. If involved, you would be given a report showing how fluent you are, with links to resources you can use to improve in areas where you are less fluent. To join in this innovative project access the survey here: https://jisc.potential.ly/signin using the code: dcap17! when prompted in the login process. For staff and appointees, select either SQA or start typing Scottish ... and the correct organisation should show for selection. Good luck!
