As defined in the Digital Skills for Today’s Workforce Act, digitally resilient means:

  • With respect to an individual: an individual with the awareness, skills, agility, and confidence to be an empowered user of new technologies and able to adapt to changing digital skill demands by improving the capacity to problem-solve, improve and update skills, navigate digital transformations, and be active participants in society and the economy,
  • With respect to a system: education or workforce development system that (a) has established processes and policies to adapt to evolving technological demands, buffer workers and businesses from the disruptive effects of rapid technological shifts, and foster the ability of an individual to create, critique, and use new technological tools; and (b) offers multiple pathways to economic success and does not endorse any single type of technology or digital skill as the mechanism for economic mobility.
