Digital Transformation Readiness in Research and Training Institutions
Abstract
This study analyzes the strategic content published by Palestinian vocational and research institutions to assess their digital transformation readiness. It applies a descriptive-analytical methodology based on four dimensions: digital technology, innovation, governance, and value creation. A purposive sample of thirteen institutions was selected across governmental, academic, international, and civil sectors. The findings reveal wide variations in digital responsiveness. While certain institutions demonstrate functional integration of digital concepts, others reflect limited or symbolic engagement. Governance emerged as the weakest represented domain. The study proposes recommendations for revising strategic language, embedding measurable digital indicators, restructuring objectives to support digital human capital, and adopting standardized evaluation frameworks.
