Summary/Abstract: The paper focuses on learning in the digital era and digital citizens. The evolution of modern information technologies and the Internet have revolutionized education and traditional forms of training. The development of modern forms of learning has directed the evolution of multimedia and communication technologies to the development of digital infrastructures demanded by today's computerized societies that provide everyone with easy access to the content of massive virtual libraries. Using new technologies, everyone concerned with their professional development can communicate with their field specialists and other colleagues to share information, knowledge and experience. Digital citizens belong to the digital society. They use technology to get involved in the good course of society. Digital citizenship empowers people to harvest the benefits of digital technology in a safe and efficient way. In the world of the 21st century, the skills of the digital age cannot be neglected. Once these skills are mastered, trust and autonomy arise. Young people learn not only to master a wide range of digital tools but also to understand how they work and how they are created.
