Abstract: The purpose of this research is to examine the digital skills that primary education teachers developed during the Covid -19 pandemic crisis and how they can utilize them in the post- Covid 19 environment. The research was quantitative and was done by distributing a questionnaire to a convenience sample of 172 teachers in the prefectures of Magnesia and Attica. The questionnaire was developed from the authors and it has been made in such a way that it can provide answers to the relevant research questions and also ensure the coherence of the work. Data analysis was done in SPSS using descriptive and inferential statistics. The research aims on examining an issue which has affected the whole of the teaching community. The Covid-19 crises has forced many educators to adopt into a new environment, which is the digital teaching environment so to cope with the new learning environment that the digital transformation has brought. Nonetheless, many educators – but also students and their parents – were not prepared to cope with the digital transformation that Covid-19 brought, while others face several difficulties. Many of those teaching practices are continue to exist in the post Covid-19 environment. Hence it is essential to examine those skills and which ones will be utilised in today’s learning environment. In relation to the results, on average primary school teachers answered that during the pandemic they had acquired a satisfactory, neither high nor low, level of digital skills. Furthermore, respondents on average agreed that their digital skills improved a lot during the pandemic. Most teachers used experiential learning techniques, special learning platforms and use of email. More than one in two teachers agreed that they had used the seminars made from local education districts to develop their digital skills. Also, one in two participants had used the Ministry of Education's seminars to acquire digital skills. In addition, the respondents indicated that in the future and in the post - Covid -19 era, they will make a lot of use of the digital skills they acquired during the pandemic, adding that they will make a lot of use of the e-class and Google platforms apps and will make a little use of the e-me and Grafis platforms. In relation to the barriers, elements such as the skills of students and their parents, the lack of skills of the school administrative staff, the lack of skills of the administrative staff of the Ministry of Education, and ineffective leadership were some of the barriers. mentioned. Finally, regarding the effect of demographic and service data, years of service had a statistically significant effect on the acquisition of digital skills during the Covid -19 pandemic.
