Being digitally competent – a task for the 21st-century citizen

By 2030, at least 80% of the population in the EU is expected to have basic digital skills. ETF partner countries also have similar very ambitious projects.

For more than a decade, ETF has used the European Digital Competence Framework, also known as DigComp, as a reference to conceptualise what being digitally competent means and use it to support the development of digital skills policy.

But, today and in perspective, what does it mean, for example, for “Citizens interacting with AI systems”? what should be good examples of skills, knowledge and attitude to deal with AI like?

A new version of DigComp is being finalised, including new and up-to-date set of examples of knowledge, skills and attitudes for digital competences. ETF has been on-board in this process and would like to engage you in the public online validation.
