Abstract

This paper, which aims to explore (i) what digital transformation means in the higher education context, (ii) what knowledge should faculty members equip themselves with in response to the forthcoming digitalization in their institutions, and (iii) what HEIs should bear in mind in designing professional development programs to support their faculty’s preparation. Based on an exhaustive review of literature, the paper has significant implications for HEIs in getting ready for their imminent digitalization.
