On January 22, 2020, in Davos, the World Economic Forum launched Reskilling Revolution, a multistakeholder initiative aimed at providing better education, new skills, and better jobs for a billion people worldwide by 2030, so questions about improving the quality of education by introducing dual distance education and retraining of personnel at enterprises are becoming more and more relevant. In the course of the study, the authors analyzed the current problems of universities and enterprises, which allowed them to propose the creation of a smart cluster. The authors demonstrated the interaction of cluster participants using the example of education. The study showed that it is with such a tool that it is possible to solve the current problems of the participants, and in general, to improve the quality of education, the well-being of the region and, as a result, when scaling up, the well-being of the country and its image and culture on the world stage. The study showed that only through joint efforts and cooperation between universities, employers, research institutes and the state, it is possible not only to improve the quality of education but also to provide enterprises with a qualified workforce on a permanent rotation basis than to increase the competitiveness of business. This will allow research institutes and universities to raise funding, which can be directed not only to maintaining the current state but also to the development and introduction of resource-saving technologies, which we see as further research methods.

Progress in information technology that is so fast is expected to improve the quality of education in Indonesia. In the world of information technology education can help and support the learning process. Especially now all the learning process activities can be done online. Progress in information technology must also be supported by quality human resources.

Because the teacher is one of the education supervisors who will encourage the advancement of the quality of education in Indonesia. But in reality the quality of teachers in Indonesia is inadequate. There are still many teachers who cannot use information technology in learning especially for teachers who are senior or old. As teacher supervisors, they must improve the quality of their performance in using technology. To improve the ability of teachers to use technology, ongoing training is needed to use technology. The role of the head of the school as a supervisor is also needed, namely the principal is obliged to supervise, control, and approach the teacher in terms of the use of technology in the learning process.

Digital technologies, ubiquitous in our daily life, have radically changed the way we work, communicate, and consume in a short period of time. They affect all components of quality of life: well-being, work, health, education, social connections, environmental quality, the ability to participate and govern civil society, and so on. Digital transformation creates both opportunities and serious risks to the well-being of people. Researchers and statistical agencies around the world are facing a major challenge to develop new tools to analyze the impact of digital transformation on the well-being of the population. The risks are very diverse in nature and it is very difficult to identify the key factor. All researchers conclude that secure digital technologies significantly improve the lives of those who have the skills to use them and pose a serious risk of inequality for society, as they introduce a digital divide between those who have the skills to use them and those who do not. In the article, the author examines the risks created by digital technologies for some components of the quality of life (digital component of the quality of life), which are six main components: the digital quality of the population, providing the population with digital benefits, the labor market in the digital economy, the impact of digitalization on the social sphere, state electronic services for the population and the security of information activities. The study was carried out on the basis of the available statistical base and the results of research by scientists from different countries of the world. The risks of the digital economy cannot be ignored when pursuing state social policy. Attention is paid to government regulation aimed at reducing the negative consequences of digitalization through the prism of national, federal projects and other events.
