In 2022, the revised education framework for elementary education and secondary vocational schools was implemented. The changes aimed to introduce new informatics and digital skills into teaching. In addition, work on the so-called major revision of the Framework Curriculum for Primary Schools continued, in which cybersecurity will be taught as part of digital skills. Cybersecurity pilot testing is continuously taking place at selected high schools. For example, a trial testing of cybersecurity education according to the school educational program and a trial verification focused on the recognition of international ICT certification standards within the profile part of the graduation exam. At universities, the trend of a slight increase in the number of students attending information and communication technology programs has continued into 2022. However, there is an insufficient increase in the number of cybersecurity-focused study programmes being prepared or opened, presenting a negative trend in this area. In cooperation with the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports, a course on cybersecurity basics for teachers was developed. It serves to help teachers recognize the risks associated with the internet and to make online teaching more secure. 38
