5. Conclusion

The digital transformation of higher education institutions is becoming imperative in a modern educational environment that demands agility, innovation, and inclusiveness.

Through systematic strategic planning, defining areas of digital maturity, and the application of proven instruments, institutions can achieve a higher level of efficiency, improve the quality of education, and connect more effectively with the scientific and social community.

The seven key strategic areas provide the foundation for a comprehensive approach to digital transformation. Their understanding and evaluation through frameworks such as DigCompOrg and DMFHEI offer a concrete tool for assessing the current state and planning future development. Examples from practice show that measurable progress is achievable through well-designed and strategically focused initiatives.

The introduction of digital technologies is not just a technical challenge, but a cultural change that requires the engagement of all stakeholders. Investment in professional development, infrastructure, digital culture, and open science lays the foundations for a sustainable and resilient educational community.

The implementation of the instrument for measuring the digital maturity of higher education institutions (Valentina Đurek) is available in worksheet 2 of the Excel file used to develop the project and must be used for the practical assignment.
