In the framework of the project "Digital Transformation in Education - Digital Competence and Learning" an IPA team conducted a research on the digital competence of state administration employees. The main objective was to identify the level of digital competence and to develop a training programme for state employees based on the research.

5,770 employees from all administrative structures in the country participated in the survey conducted from 6 to 15 November 2019. For this purpose, a self-assessment questionnaire was developed, including 141 statements grouped into 6 separate modules. The developed questionnaire is based on the European Digital Competence Framework DigiComp 2.1, developed by the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, which aims to identify and validate the key components of digital competence at European level.
