This study examines the habits and competences of IT students in the use of information technology resources. The survey includes 650 students from seven different higher education institutions in various countries in the region. The paper investigates which information technology tools, online applications, and offline programs are being used. The paper also aims to highlight the amount of time that students spend online and how much they participate in communicating online. The goal is to assess what the opportunities provided by the Internet have been used for in terms of learning and development. The obtained results can help to develop and improve virtual learning environments, as well as create an improved form and content of online courses in the future.
