Most of the digital tools used in higher education today have their roots in enterprise environments and proved to be of great importance for their digital transformation. The examples such as systems and applications integrity (e.g. Enterprise Resource Planning), digital repositories, knowledge management and exchange systems, video conferencing systems and digital collaboration tools are only part of the wide range of tools that have shifted into the educational environment. Digital transformation has been present in the business sector for a long time, while in the higher education system it was mainly based on the digitisation of certain segments (individual departments or individual processes) i.e. partial digitalisation that has influenced but has not significantly changed the traditional model [1]. If we consider and observe the digitalisation level of higher education institutions through three different segments (institutional, teacher, and student) then digital transformation should be approached by integrating these three segments [2]. Special focus should be on the digital skills and competencies, for which we have frameworks developed on the EU level, such as European Framework: DigCompEdu, DigCompOrg [3]. The integrity of the approach is what has been seen in the business, usually known as an enterprise architecture which seeks to integrate all processes, but also to foresee the preconditions for later integration of what we are unable to implement at the outset. In addition to the above, companies analyse their business model in detail in order to achieve greater efficiency and easier monitoring on how certain disruptive segments affect other segments in the model and the extent to which digital transformation is taking place. In this paper, the authors analyse a number of approaches from the digital transformation of companies and provide a framework that is applicable for the higher education institutions.

In the 21st century the efficiency of work in the field of nursing largely depends on the proper use of information and communication technology in order to identify, find, process, store and communicate essential information. This is imperative for nurses and technicians in order to spend as little time as possible on administrative tasks and to devote most of their time to patients and medical care. In addition, information- literate nurses and technicians can significantly influence patients' health literacy. The subject of this paper is information literacy in the field of nursing since the problem being researched is the study of the extent to which nurses and technicians are information literate. The purpose of this paper is to show the situation related to information literacy of nursing in the Republic of Croatia. Two hypotheses that are being researched are: Information literacy helps nurses to improve the quality of medical care by reducing administration time ; and the second one: In order to increase the level of information literacy, it is necessary to introduce new contents into the existing nursing curricula and ensure lifelong learning. Confirmation of the hypotheses was ensured through the implementation of the research where a questionnaire was distributed and the available body of literature was studied. The paper itself consists of an introductory part in which a brief overview of the area is given as well as an explanation of the basic concepts. Subsequently, the results of the survey and examination of the available literature are presented. The results of the research are shown in the discussion part and definitive conclusions are reached at the end.
