Abstract
With the rapid development of digital technologies and the global digitalisation of the education system, the issue of teacher training is becoming increasingly relevant. Teachers must have the necessary digital competencies and be ready to adapt learning processes to the requirements of the modern digital educational environment. The study aims to examine the peculiarities of teacher training and identify the main approaches to improving their digital competence. The object of the study is the processes and methods of training teachers to work in the digital educational environment. The research methodology includes an analysis of modern scientific publications and empirical data obtained through a survey of teachers, a comparative analysis, and case studies. The results of the study show that the integration of digital technologies into educational programmes significantly improves the level of teacher training. Developing digital competencies, including technical skills, critical thinking, and cybersecurity, is crucial to teachers' successful adaptation to the digital environment. Using new pedagogical approaches, such as interactive teaching methods and a personalised approach, improves education quality and increases teacher motivation. The analysis of empirical data has shown that continuous professional development of teachers, including participation in in-service training courses and webinars, is critical to maintaining their competence. It is of great practical importance to develop recommendations for improving teacher training programmes, which will improve the quality of education and ensure the effective use of digital technologies in the learning process.
