Background: To provide high-quality education and remain innovative, thus contributing to sustainable development goals, educational institutions use digital tools and implement ICT in the teaching process. In addition to providing technical resources, it requires the appropriate education of teachers who should have the appropriate knowledge and skills to take full advantage of the opportunities provided by ICT. Objectives: The main objective of this article is to identify the current state of ICT knowledge and skills of university professors and high school teachers and to establish if there exists a relationship between their digital competencies and teaching experience. We strive to discover areas where digital competencies are already relatively high and ICT knowledge and skills gaps. Methods/Approach: Survey was conducted on a sample of university and secondary school professors who were asked to estimate their perceived level of knowledge and skills in various ICT domains. Results: The results of our research show that the total self-assessed level of competence is intermediate, with slightly higher values for ICT knowledge than for ICT skills. The results vary depending on the different subcategories of competencies and the years of respondents’ teaching experience. Conclusions: Our research findings, which revealed variations and gaps in digital knowledge and skills among professors and teachers, may have significant policy implications for policymakers and educators committed to ensuring quality education.

Due to many social and environmental challenges in the last decade, many companies recognized the importance of non financial reporting to provide complete overview of its performance and socially responsible behaviour. Furthermore, for some companies the obligation of non financial reporting has been institutionalized by European commission directives. This paper explores the extent of non financial reporting regarding employment-matters in hospitality industry in Croatia. Research objective of the paper is to assess the type and amount of information regarding employment and human resource management related issues disclosed by hospitality industry companies listed on Zagreb Stock Exchange. Research results indicate that the quantity of disclosed information increased after implementing EU directives on non financial reporting, but there is still room for improvement. It is expected that hospitality industry companies will disclose even more employee-related indicators in the future due to the importance they give to their human resources and the importance of such indicators is further discussed in this paper.

Stakeholders in the tourism system, recognizing the importance of digitalization and the adoption of modern technological solutions, are increasingly integrating artificial intelligence into their operations, including the use of autonomous robots. These initiatives should primarily aim to enhance the customer experience by simplifying and streamlining procedures, while allowing tourism employees to devote more attention to guests. Nautical tourism is a specific form of tourism in which the Republic of Croatia is a global leader; however, it also faces a shortage of qualified staff. Marinas, as the most significant stakeholders within the nautical tourism sector, are the first to invest in the development of innovative solutions. In addition to reviewing the theoretical framework, this paper emphasizes primary research. The aim of the research was to examine the attitudes and habits of nautical tourism guests regarding the adoption of new technologies in marinas, as well as their willingness to use autonomous robots. Given the decision to develop and implement autonomous robots in business operations, the research was conducted among users of nautical services in one of the most modern nautical tourism ports in Croatia and the Mediterranean. A structured online questionnaire was used. The results indicate users’ readiness for the immediate adoption of autonomous robots in certain services, providing a direct incentive for stronger implementation of similar solutions among other stakeholders. This research also suggests that Croatia has the potential to become a technological hub for smart nautical tourism.
