The COVID-19 pandemic causes changes in the education system. There is digitalization in the education system lately. Learning must be done online to prevent face-to-face communication. This is important to reduce the risks of COVID-19 transmission. However, there are challenges and opportunities in digital transformation in the education system during the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper aims to describe the challenges and opportunities in digital transformation for education during the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper is a literature review. Literature was searched from Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, and SINTA journal. Inclusion criteria are reviews and researches. Exclusion criteria are unavailable full-text articles. Results revealed challenges in digital transformation in education systems are infrastructures and skills. Infrastructures mean the availability of gadgets and internet connections from teachers and students. Skills mean competence from students and teachers in utilizing the digital equipment and software during the learning system. Opportunities are wide research scopes, modifications, and creativities that can be explored. In conclusion, challenges in digital transformation are infrastructures and skills aspects from students and teachers. Opportunities are wide research scopes, modifications, and creativities that can be explored during digital transformation. Therefore, teachers and students need to adapt to digital transformation in education systems.
