Successful completion of the training as a Digital Pilot for Löffingen.

In order to support the digitalisation of administrative services in Löffingen, a local government employee was trained as a digital pilot (“Digitallotse”) in a three-day training course. In this process individuals can acquire specific digitisation skills and thus support the smart digital transformation in their communities. Digital Pilots are intended to provide inspiration to initiate necessary measures as well as transformation and change processes and act as motivators for digitization projects.
