About the Event:
Digital Identity is changing the way tertiary education is delivered and experienced in New Zealand. It ensures secure and seamless access to online resources, supports remote learning, and enhances the overall student experience. By implementing robust Digital Identity systems, educational institutions can provide personalised learning environments, protect sensitive information, and foster collaboration across different platforms and devices.
The University of Auckland has been navigating this complex landscape and taking steps to realise its vision for the future, all while considering the broader impact on academia and society.
Join us, and Middleware New Zealand for an insightful conversation with the University of Auckland as we explore the evolution of Digital Identity in response to changing customer expectations and heightened needs for trust and interoperability.
