Resumen

La transformación digital de las empresas está modificando no solo los procesos, sino también las profesiones. Como consecuencia, la fuerza laboral debe adaptarse a estos cambios. Los trabajadores mayores de 55 años son particularmente vulnerables, ya que su nivel de competencias digitales sigue siendo bajo: en promedio, en la Unión Europea, el 44,3 % de las personas entre 55 y 64 años y el 28,1 % de aquellas entre 65 y 74 años poseen al menos competencias digitales básicas. Las cifras correspondientes a competencias digitales superiores a las básicas son aún más bajas: 18,1 % y 9,4 %, respectivamente. Al mismo tiempo, los datos confirman el potencial de las oportunidades de aprendizaje flexibles, no formales y basadas en el lugar de trabajo para favorecer la inclusión de los trabajadores mayores. Un número creciente de adultos informa que organiza su propio aprendizaje o participa en iniciativas no formales, lo que refleja una mayor iniciativa personal y la necesidad de formatos personalizados y accesibles. En este sentido, las estrategias inclusivas con enfoque etario en la educación superior y en los programas de formación para adultos pueden desempeñar un papel fundamental en la reducción de las brechas de competencias digitales y en el apoyo a trayectorias laborales más prolongadas y adaptativas. El análisis de casos demuestra que, si bien las universidades aplican activamente prácticas de la Universidad de la Tercera Edad (U3A), es necesario fomentar una adopción más amplia, especialmente en el ámbito de la educación digital.
