The abrupt transition to distance education in Peru highlighted the urgent need for teachers to acquire digital skills to adapt to new ways of teaching. Therefore, the objective of the study was to identify the relationship between digital competencies and professional development in teachers. Under the correlational-causal type, and cross-sectional design, the survey technique was used supported by the questionnaire instrument, complying with the requirements of validity and reliability. The census population was 70 teachers. The results of Spearman's Rho correlation test revealed a positive correlation of medium level (Rho 0.360 and p-value 0.002) between digital competence and professional development. In conclusion, a significant and positive, albeit moderate, relationship was found between the two variables. These findings support the importance of promoting digital competencies in teachers to improve their professional development in the educational field.
