The research surveyed 214 teachers from 10 primary
schools in the Southeast region of Macedonia . The
Technique Modeling with Structural Equations was used
to determine the relative strength of influence of factors
on ICT competencies of teachers and the relative strength
of the factors affecting the frequency of use of ICT in
teaching. The results show that 25% of the teachers have
below basic ICT Competency, 17% of teachers have basic
