Abstract

We live in a digital era. There are many examples of degree in which our everyday life and business are dependent upon computers and similar devices. Information and communication technologies have significant impact on modern education and business environment. Practical education has important role in the learning process in informatics. If our goal is to prepare students for modern business environment, the emphasis should be given to practical training. This study briefly shows some aspects of practical education on the teaching course of Business Informatics that the authors find useful.
