The eight aims are intended to set an overall strategic direction for the post-16 sector as a whole to work towards by 2030.

Learning is enhanced through the use of technology, wherever it is appropriate and beneficial to the learner.
The coherence and accessibility of digital learning is increased through a range of curriculum delivery methods that are appropriate to learner and employer needs, and offer learning opportunities in both the Welsh and English languages.
A safe and secure teaching and learning experience is enabled and managed for all learners and staff through provision of appropriate virtual and physical environments.
The benefits of digital technology, and possible barriers to their achievement, are understood by all staff including senior leaders.
