EMPLOYEE TRAINING TO INCREASE DIGITAL LITERACY

Abstract

The intention of our research was to examine the content and scope of education (stated in hours) to enhance digital literacy required for the profession, where we examined selected forms of education. The research was conducted by questionnaire survey. The aim of the paper was to highlight the importance of different areas of education in the development of digital knowledge and skills and to recommend preferred forms of education in each area of digital literacy. The results of the research show that employees in our research sample used self-education the most, followed by peer-to-peer education. Organized learning was used only minimally. Statistical significance was demonstrated in the case of self-education in different content areas of digital literacy. Statistical significance was not demonstrated for the difference in the forms of education from the original education or from the current job position.
