At the current level of economic development, the digital transformation of society is an important factor in advancing any social structure. The purpose of the present study was to explore the transformation of a traditional society into a digital one, with a focus on ethical and environmental aspects. The study draws on a variety of information analysis methods to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of digitalization, including the environmental aspect. Our research revealed that in Russia, the only highly digitalized sectors were information technology and finance. Digitalization is strikingly different in the European countries, where only transport and building industries slowly implemented digital technologies into their business processes. We also examined digitalization levels in 7 Moscow universities. The universities managed to improve their digitalization scores with the help of recommendations developed for online learning, such as selection of quality software, having qualified teaching staff, constant monitoring, and evaluation of knowledge. The findings can be used in economic, social, and environmental spheres since they highlight the ambiguous effects of digitalization using practical examples.

This article analyzes the perspectives of professional training of the public administration staff, from the viewpoint of the sustainability criteria, starting from the experiences of the online courses run in the last two years. In order to understand the nature, type and magnitude of the changes caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in the field of professional training for public administration, we performed a survey among public institution employees, by applying a questionnaire. The instrument included qualitative elements, to allow the framing of statistical results. The article is grounded on the hypothesis that the professional training activities in the last two years were organized preponderantly online and it aims to analyze the sustainability of the new teaching systems/methods. The limitations of the study are given by the fact that each administrative system has structure particularities and its own legal framework regarding the professional training of public administration staff, what makes that the model proposed cannot be applied in all countries. The study provides a model of online professional training for public administration staff, sustainable, based on the experience accumulated in the last two years.

“…Among the proposed competencies, which were rated the highest, it is appropriate to highlight the possession of the legal framework and the ability to work with its practical application. Respondents identified this skill as basic, as the development of the system of public administration is possible only if the modification and transformation of domestic legislation to the leading international norms, as indicated by the respondents (Brans & Coenen, 2016;HERGÜNER, 2021). Also, among the main skills are the ability to generate new ideas and analytical skills.…”

In the context of global challenges, the problems of the education system become much more acute. Access to quality education for a number of categories of the population is limited due to financial, political, religious and social problems. The solutions to these problems lie within the competence of the governing bodies of the education system at the state level. The article identifies the duality of the problem of ensuring the quality of education. The article presents the results of a questionnaire survey to ensure the quality of training in the system of public education management.
