Digital literacy skills will be required for 90% of jobs in the near future across many career fields such as engineering, accounting, nursing, and medicine. Digital literacy is about using technology to change the way one thinks, rather than having an in-depth knowledge of computers. The All Aboard project provides research, feedback, and training on digital skills and digital badges through partnerships between universities.

"In the near future 90% of jobs - in careers such as
engineering, accountancy, nursing, medicine, art,
architecture, and many more - will require some
level of digital skills”.
(Digital Agenda for Europe, 2015).
"Digital Literacy isn't about knowing
computers inside and out; it's about
using technology to change the way
you think"
(Briggs 2014)
