Jisc hot topics for 2026

Representatives from Jisc will share perspectives on the key issues currently affecting higher education and how they are supporting providers to respond.

This webinar will bring together Jisc representatives to share perspectives on hot topics currently affecting higher education providers – from cyber resilience and regulatory expectations to student experience, data-informed decision making and sustainable digital investment.

You will hear how Jisc is supporting organisations to respond to these challenges in practice, alongside examples, insight and emerging thinking from across the organisation. Speakers will also signpost where Jisc’s capabilities – including connectivity, security, data and insight, licensing, and communities – are evolving in response to sector needs, and how these can be applied flexibly within IHE member contexts.

There will be time for discussion and questions, enabling you to compare approaches and identify practical next steps relevant to your organisation’s priorities.
