This theoretical article investigates how the concepts of structure and action allow an original approach of the concept of skill in the field of ICT. This approach concerns a search for compatibility between stemming models Technologies which propose the socio-technical structures and those of the Human Sciences who organize the action of the individuals. The theoretical models called by different disciplinary domains (sociology, ethnomethodology, social psychology, linguistic, education, communication and information science) give to the concept of skill in ICT a new consistency, more anthropology centred and less technico-practical. They ask the question of the relationship between micro and macro, the relationship of the individual to the group, and also ask the ontological question of the structures. The skills are not only reduced to the knowledge of the technical aspects, but are widened in the control of the conditions of adequate use and the possibilities offered by the technique. To use the technologies, it is to build of the relation thanks to communicative skill of the ICT.
