• Need to re-fresh and update the concepts & terms
• Alignment with other taxonomies and frameworks
(e.g. Esco, eCF)
III. Steps to DigComp 2.0
• Update of the Conceptual reference model
(publication: May 2016)
• 8 Proficiency levels (2nd half of 2016)
IV. Future work
5. What does it mean to be digitally competent?
KNOWLEDGE

COMPETENCE
Digital competence ≠ use of ICT tools
Digital competence involves the
confident and critical use of ICT
for employment, learning, self-
development and participation in
society (EC, 2006).
6. EU Common Conceptual definition
• Based on Key Competences framework (2006) - 1 of the 8 key competences
• Digital competences for ALL citizens
EU Common Referencing framework
• Descriptors of the needed competences
• Proficiency levels described as learning outcomes
(Self-)assessment tools
• For individuals ; for E&T providers; for Employment service; for guidance
centres; for employers; etc.

Framework
Dimension 1: Competence areas ( 5 areas)
Dimension 2: Competences that are pertinent to each area (21)
with their title and description
Dimension 3: Proficiency levels that are foreseen for each
competence
Dimension 4: Examples of the knowledge, skills and attitudes
applicable to each competence
Dimension 5: Examples on the applicability of the competence
to different purposes.
DigComp framework is composed
of two parts

DigComp 1.0: Feedback & analytical work
12. 12
• In 2015, JRC-IPTS collaborated with the development of
the ESCO ICT transversal skills list
• A mapping exercise undertaken to converge towards a
common understanding
• DigComp 2.0 takes into account the ESCO work,
and vise versa
(see also slide 22
for more)

• The frameworks have a different target audience:
citizens vs. ICT professionals
• DigComp covers 14 out of 40 e-CF competences (1/3):
this shows that ICT professional competences have a
much wider and specific scope
• Cross-referencing "passage" from
DigComp to e-CF for those seeking
to become ICT professionals
Continuity from DigComp to e-CF

3.4 Programming could correspond
with
A.6. Application Design (EQF
levels 3-6);
B.1 Application Development
(EQF levels 3-8);
B.6 Systems Engineering
(EQF levels 6-7)
1.3 Storing and retrieving
information
higher levels could
correspond with
D.10 Information and
Knowledge Management
(EQF levels 6-8)
4.1 Protecting devices higher levels could
correspond with
D.1 Information Security
Strategy Management (EQF
levels 7-8);
E.8. Information Security
Management (EQF levels 5-7)

17. From DIGCOMP 1.0 to DIGCOMP 2.0
Task 1: Update of the conceptual reference model
i.e. the titles and descriptions of each competence (21)
-> Publication of the updated conceptual reference model in
May 2016 – Feedback welcome until March 15 !
Task 2: Update the proficiency levels
• From 3 levels to 8 levels of learning outcomes
• One learning outcome per level combining knowledge, skills and attitude
• Task 3: Validation of DigComp framework 2.0
(=with 8 levels) in the course of 2016
• Task 4: Self-assessment (reference) questionnaire 17
18. What are the change in DigComp 2.0?
• All 5 areas reamain more or less the same
• Information -> Information and data processing
• All 21 competences remain more or less the same
• Updated vocabulary, e.g. online -> digital environments
• Conceptual updates to follow the time (e.g. data protection and right
to be forgotten)
• Streamlining of competence descriptions to reduce redundancy
• 8 proficiency levels
• One description per level combining knowledge, skills and
attitude
