We conducted this research with a qualitative approach, namely by describing the results we obtained while conducting research among students. As a result, from the research that we conducted, digital character education needs to be done to welcome society into the digital era and support the realization of a digitally capable society. Several strategies that can be carried out in accelerating digital character education are the provision of supporting digital facilities, digital facilities trainers that have been provided, and the development of the use of digital facilities.

INTRODUCTION
Today we[A1] feel the impact of globalization. Moreover, the rapid development of digital technology makes work easier. Work that was originally done manually has now been replaced by digital technology. The proliferation of digital technology developments has caused the world to become completely digital.[A2] Indeed, the truth about this change has been acknowledged and cannot be avoided. Or it can be said that following the digital flow has become a demand. One of the benchmarks for a developed country today is based on the level of development of digital technology in a country. If a country does not follow the flow of digital technology development, then a country can certainly be left behind with other countries. Advances in digital technology have given birth to the ease of doing work and causing distance to seem non-existent because it is easy to interact even though they are far apart.
The rise of the flow of technological development along with the development of digital technology has positive and negative impacts in it. One of the positive impacts is facilitating work and communication. While the negative impact is that with the easy flow of technology, a lot of culture has entered the country of Indonesia. [A3] Sometimes the culture deviates from Indonesian culture. This means that the culture that enters along with the development of technology is not in accordance with the personality of the Indonesian nation. [A4] Therefore, this is where character education is needed. This character education has a wide scope. To form character education is not easy. There needs to be awareness from each individual and also help from others such as parents and teachers. The existence of this digital technology can actually also be used to increase the character value of every citizen. One of them is by utilizing existing digital technology, especially for millennials. Students and students [A5] who tend to have a high intellectual level.
