Overview
Digital Competence involves the confident, critical, and responsible use of digital technologies for learning, work, and participation in society. It encompasses five areas: information and data literacy, communication and collaboration, digital content creation, safety and well-being, and problem-solving. It also includes understanding the social, ethical, and legal dimensions of digital life.
