Patients And Methods:
Materials and Methods: The updated 'Digigram for Healthcare Professionals' test tool, consisting of 75 questions, was utilized to assess the digital competence of 90 students and 136 practicing nurses before and after training in the Health Informatics curricula, updated through the USAID Health Reform project grant program at Zhytomyr Medical Institute in Ukraine during the first half of 2024. Additionally, the satisfaction of both groups with the curricula content was evaluated.

The proportion of students with digital competence levels A (Proficient) and B (Above Basic) rose by 38%, from 27% to 65%. Among nurses, digital competence improved by 10%, with the proportion of those at levels A and B increasing by 14%, from 57% to 71%. Additionally, 93% of students and 94% of nurses expressed satisfaction with the content of the new curricula.
