Abstract The Digital Competency is a new, evolving, and elaborate technology-related skill. It is more than digital skills considering social and emotional parameters for using and understanding digital devices. It covers technical skills and abilities to use the technologies meaningfully for working, studying, and playing, and more than for everyday life in various activities. It requires abilities to critically evaluate digital technologies and motivation to participate in the digital culture. In contrast, women empowerment is the most thinkable issue from period to period. There are lots of trial-and-error processes that have been done till the 21st century, and still now, we are thinking about the process of empowering women. The cause behind it firstly is that the processes reach some portions do not reach all, and second till now, discrimination between girls and boys exists in our society. Now, it has been considered a global issue. Women empowered through ICT is also the most studied topic. Now, they require more than knowledge and skills; they must be competent in this field.
