• The purpose of this study is to analyze the perception of the digital teaching competences of the students of the Degree in Pre-School Education, Degree in Primary Education and Master in Teacher Training for Secondary Education. Additionally, this paper includes the students’ perception of their teachers’ digital competence. A mixed non-experimental methodology has been used with 428 the University of Alicante students participating. The results show a positive perception of the students about their digital teaching competence with contrasts with a deficient evaluation in relation to the digital teaching training of their teaching staff. Based on these results, the need to apply an improvement in the manipulative and didactic technological training of university teachers is corroborated as well as an adaptation of the teaching skills to the needs of the ICS in order to be able to carry out the correct preparation of the teaching staff in training.
