Why IT Fitness Test?
Digital skills are a necessity for all of us in the 21st century. Without sufficient orientation in the digital world, it is very difficult to succeed. Therefore, as a first step, we need to know what our strengths and weaknesses are and then educate ourselves further in the necessary areas.
Coordinated testing in schools and classrooms is essential for the success of the project. The test gives teachers an overview of their pupils' digital skills levels and allows them to focus on areas where pupils need to improve in their further education.
In addition, pupils and whole classes compete for fantastic prizes to help them further develop their skills.

Mário Lelovský
Chairman, Digital Coalition"The 12th edition of the IT Fitness Test brought fantastic success in terms of respondent participation not only in Slovakia, but also in the other participating countries. Almost 150 thousand respondents took part in the testing, and that is why our partners in the V4 countries deserve a big thank you for a job well done and for helping to spread awareness about the importance of digital skills among the young generation and also among key institutions in the public and private sector."
Richard Raši
Minister of Investments, Regional Development and Informatisation of the SSlovak Republic"IT Fitness Test was more than a decade ahead of its time in this respect. It allows for the testing of not only IT knowledge, but also competences in the areas of working with information, understanding context, problem solving, and critical thinking. The importance of technical and soft skills will only increase in the future, given technological developments and the related demand for them from employers."
Michal Kanownik
President, Digital Poland Association"The results of the latest edition of the IT Fitness Test in Poland are slightly better when compared to last year. Although we still have a lot to work on (cybersecurity is still a priority!), the test results show that widespread educational campaigns do make a positive impact. Students get better at navigating the digital world and they feel more confident and secure. One might say that digital competences are the skills of tomorrow. We believe, however, that tomorrow is today."
Krizstina Tajthy
Secretary General, IVSZ - Association of Digital Companies"We believe that advanced digital skills are indispensable for current and future employees to secure a suitable job and for countries to remain competitive. Continuous improvement of these skills must already begin when young people are in their school years. To consciously develop digital skills, people need to be able to measure the actual status of these skills. It is at the same time the government’s, the employers’, and citizens’ responsibility and in their interest to enhance digital competences. Hungary’s digital economy cannot grow without a skilled workforce."
Alona Kurotova
Director General, iCanschool"We very much appreciate the fact that the Slovak National Coalition for Digital Skills and Jobs (Digital Coalition) has enabled and supported the participation of Ukrainian pupils and students in digital skills testing and we believe that this tradition will continue in the future."
Jaromír Hanzal
Director, Association for Applied Research in IT"We are happy that this year’s edition of IT Fitness Test, which was also the first that we have been involved in, ended up as a success. We would like to thank our partners from Česko.Digital, who played a key role in achieving such large numbers of tested individuals. Participation within the Czech Republic in IT Fitness Test 2023 was almost ten times higher compared to the previous year. We see this as an obligation for next year, as we will try to reach or even surpass these numbers, even though it will not be an easy task."
