JISC services promote the effective and innovative use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in the further education (FE), higher education (HE) and research communities.

Collectively, the JISC services offer:

• Access to high-quality digital resources to support learning, teaching and research
• Advice on the creation and preservation of digital resources
• Guidance on the implications of ICT, including legal and organisational issues
• Advice and training on technical and network matters
• Opportunities to trial tools for resource creation and to share and repurpose resources
• Front-line support through the JISC Regional Support Centres (JISC RSCs)

Working in Partnership demonstrates how the FE communities have used the expertise and experience of JISC-funded services to overcome challenges, to gain skills and to enhance the quality and value of what they offer.

In many cases, collaborative partnerships between services have enabled learning providers to achieve deep and transformative change, becoming a beacon of good practice to others.

As a result, a high regard for the JISC services is felt by many in the FE communities, as is evident from the case studies in this publication. Supporting each account are testimonies from senior managers, practitioners, sector associates and learners.

However, today’s fast-changing technological and educational environment means that these stories cannot be complete. Closely focused on the needs of users across the sector, JISC services continue to provide agile, high-quality guidance and support to the FE communities as they strive to meet the new challenges of the digital age.

Tailor-made advice and dedicated support from JISC services help the FE communities to realise their ICT and technology goals.
