Programme overview

In the first year of programme delivery, we have engaged 89% of ICSs through our bespoke development support, peer learning and insights sharing.

Systems are faced with a challenging digital landscape, including operational pressures, funding constraints, workforce shortages and stretched operational capacity. A new way of working is needed to address these challenges, and the Digital ICS programme supports ICS leaders to build their understanding of digital at a system level and their collective role in driving digital transformation.

The programme focuses on sharing expert insight, good practice and peer learning on digital transformation through a set of free and voluntary leadership development sessions, events and resources.

The free offer includes:

ICS leadership development sessions – bespoke agendas will be co-designed with ICS leaders to meet the specific digital needs of the system and will enable the ICB and other leadership groups to reflect on how digital can support delivery of the core strategic purposes of the ICS.
Peer learning events – our events give system leaders the opportunity to hear from peers across the health and care and other sectors, share good practice, explore the art of the possible and learn key factors for successful digital transformation.
Resources and insight briefings – our quarterly insight briefings share learnings and emerging good practice from across the sector.
