Summary/Abstract: According to the Digital Agenda 2020, the European Union is achieving various activities and projects such as DIGCOMP, New Skills Agenda for Europe. At the European level, in all sectors of the economic and social life, there are vacant jobs due to the lack of persons holding digital competences. As estimated by the European Commission, in 2020, almost 756,000 jobs in the ICT sector will not be occupied due to the lack of persons with digital competences. Thus, the digital transformation represents a great opportunity for job creation. The paper presents an analysis concerning the digital skills in information, communication, problem-solving, content-creation of the EU population. The paper concludes with the need to develop the digital competences in all the EU Member States, and especially in Romania by smart education.
