Summary/Abstract: This research aims to examine the digital skills of educational administrators and their approaches to digital technologies. This research, conducted on 20 school administrators in Adıyaman province, examined the digital skill levels of the participants, their habits of using digital tools, their contributions to digital transformation in educational institutions, digital skill development programs for teachers and staff, effective use of educational technologies, their approaches to digital security and privacy issues, digital equality and evaluated their attitudes on accessibility issues, the importance they attach to digital literacy education, and their views on the future role of digital skills. The findings show that educational administrators generally have a positive attitude towards digital technologies, but vary in their digital skill levels and approaches to digital security issues. The results emphasize that various measures should be taken to strengthen the digital skills of educational managers and to effectively manage the digital transformation process in educational institutions.
