Technology has prompted dramatic transformation and disruption of traditional educational approaches. The persuasive adoption of digital technologies, in all aspects of life, has prompted the need for all educators to develop a deeper understanding of the implications and opportunities that digital technologies provide to enhance learning and teaching. This change has prompted the need for leaders who are able to harness digital change to support effective engagement and understanding of the impact of digital technology in education. 

The e-Learning and Digital Technologies endorsement provides educators and training or support staff with opportunities to develop their knowledge, understanding and professional practice, examine critical issues and build confidence and capability for leadership in this area.
