Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current global pandemic scenario has led to a rapid adaptation of many jobs so that they can continue to be performed from home. These developments have highlighted the need for a range of skills, including digital skills. Fields as diverse as education, business, public administration and health have been pushed to virtualise their daily work. In many cases, the employee has been required to train and acquire digital skills that had not previously been given the importance they deserved.
From this point of view, this monograph sets out a proposal that includes all the research that has been carried out and is currently being carried out on digital competences in all areas, both in the workplace and professionally.
In order to allow time to develop and finalise the research currently underway, this Special Issue will be open for one year to compile quality studies that promote the acquisition of digital competences in pursuit of a sustainable society.
