Technological development of ICT in Latvia is high; however, Latvian adults are passive online learners. The relationship between Latvian adult learners’ digital competence and experience with online learning has been researched in this paper. The author has investigated Latvian adults’ digital competencies and their experience with online learning. The findings show that adults’ digital competence and the interest to study online is rather low. The results of this research can be used as a basis for online course design adapted to needs of adults with low digital competence.
