And in 2022, staff and students will have access to 1:1 coaching and support through the Adobe Creative Campus drop-in centre.

"As a global university of technology, design and enterprise, with a focus on helping people thrive amidst technological transformations, this partnership enables our students to generate creative ideas in multiple modalities, demonstrating their digital literacy and creativity, and graduate with in-demand work-ready skills," said RMIT Deputy Vice-Chancellor (STEM) and vice president digital innovation Professor Aleksandar Subic.

"The announcement is an extension of our continued partnership with Adobe. Through this next stage of our partnership, we will support all our staff and students in Australia and globally to harness and apply digital innovation regardless of their circumstances, location or area of study."

RMIT and Adobe have previously worked together on a range of programs, including the RMIT Adobe UX Awards, where students create mobile app prototypes using Adobe XD, and creative and career jams designed to help students with product enablement, personal brand and digital CV building, and digital literacy workshops, using Adobe Creative Cloud.

"In Australia's digital-first economy, it's imperative that we arm our students with the digital skills required to succeed in today's workforce," said Adobe ANZ vice president and managing director Suzanne Steele.

"Digital literacy is a fundamental skill and has never been more critical in Australia, and through evolving our partnership with RMIT via Adobe Creative Campus, we underscore our mutual commitment to digital literacy and educational digital transformation," she said.

Adobe vice president and general manager of Creative Cloud product marketing and community and digital media education Mala Sharma said the Adobe Creative Campus program "aims to engage faculty and students across entire campuses to bring digital literacy and creativity into learning."

"I am thrilled to have RMIT become our 55th Adobe Creative Campus. Being an Adobe Creative Campus recognises RMIT's commitment to being a leader in digital innovation and to fostering digital literacy, access, and equity for all students," she said.
