Who does JISC Digital Media help?
As a JISC Advance service, we are here to support the UK's Further and
Higher education community. We also support providers of work based
learning and adult community learning, as well as those involved with
business and community engagement (BCE). With the exception of Training and
Consultancy, use of all the services is free for staff working in such
institutions. However, there are instances when people in this sector
require more support for digitisation activity than can be provided by the
Helpdesk and Advice documents. In such cases, it may be appropriate to use
JISC Digital Media's consultancy service.
We are also able to provide some limited support to those from the cultural
heritage and NHS sectors. This support will be through the Helpdesk
service, where we will endeavour to answer small-scale questions quickly.
Members of these communities are also very welcome to read our advice
documents or book on JISC Digital Media training courses. For ongoing
support it may be more suitable for organisations to use the consultancy
service.
