How to prepare for the seminar check

Before taking the seminar check, have a look at the Digital Competence Framework for Austria (DigComp AT). In a first step, you should assign competence areas to your educational offer. In this context, version 2.2. is relevant for you until March 2023 and version 2.3 of DigComp AT from April 2023. In a second step, you should assign the selected competence areas to the appropriate proficiency levels.

Here you can find a guideline with an explanation of the competence levels, additional required documents and requirements for pictures.

How to assign competence levels to educational offers

  • Level 1 indicates that I begin to understand something. With guidance, I may be able to complete simple tasks.
  • Level 2 means that I am already able to solve simple tasks on my own, however, I occasionally need support.
  • Level 3 indicates that I can complete several tasks on my own, provided no problems occur.
  • Level 4 means that I can use the applications independently and without errors after receiving appropriate training.
  • Level 5 indicates that I have more in-depth expertise that is accompanied by greater responsibility (such as team leadership). I can pass on my knowledge to others.
  • Level 6 encompasses comprehensive knowledge in the respective competence area, This is necessary, for instance, for finding the best possible existing solution to a complex task (or consulting situation).
  • Level 7 indicates that I have competences that enable me to create new solutions (for example in managing a development project). Such solutions also prove to be important beyond the given task (e.g. for the professional community).
  • Level 8 involves expertise and competences at the highest level. These are required for the development of new, innovative, sustainable, efficient and relevant solutions to complex tasks (e.g. for the professional community or domain).
