Description With each new generation, a new digital era is also born. There are few professions that can do work without Digital Technologies. Teachers' digital competences in vocational education are therefore key to fulfilling the new professional roles of teachers in response to the ever-changing demands of society. Online teaching in the pandemic era has shown the need for continuous improvement of teachers' digital competences (they apply digital competences in communication; in preparation for teaching or in the teaching process itself). Teachers' digital competences play a significant role in the development of their students' digital competences. Increasing the digital competences of teachers and students' is linked to the development of professional competences. This includes the acquisition of knowledge, skills and habits in the use of digital technologies in the preparation of future teachers at university, but also in teaching practice. In our paper, we offer a few examples of how teachers' digital competences can be enhanced.
