Hanoi (VNA) – From now to 2025, the northern province of Bac Giang will press on with developing human resources to serve digital transformation, said Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Mai Son.
This year, he said, the provincial Department of Information and Communications will enhance efforts to carry on training human resources for digital transformation in Bac Giang towards 2030.
Training courses on digital transformation, including information safety, and leadership skills will be held for leaders of state agencies from the provincial to communal levels. Advanced refresher courses on new technologies, digital transformation, information system building, and information safety will also be organised for information technology personnel of state agencies.
Bac Giang will step up developing cyber-security staff to monitor, prevent, and deal with cyber safety and security-related incidents and hi-tech crimes.
It will also make annual plans to send personnel to training and refresher courses as instructed by the Ministry of Information and Communications to guarantee information safety and security during the management and operations of equipment, software, and databases at the provincial integrated data centre, Son noted.
Meanwhile, he added, the Department of Home Affairs will continue advising the provincial People’s Committee about the arrangement and supplementation of information technology personnel for provincial and district-level agencies.
Director of the Department of Information and Communications Tran Minh Chieu said that in 2023, Bac Giang continued paying attention to developing human resources for digital transformation, with the organisation of 66 training and refresher courses on digital transformation for civil servants and public employees of local state agencies. In particular, those courses equipped cadres of grassroots women’s unions with digital skills, improved the awareness of digital transformation among cadres of the cultural sector, and gave guidance on the use of digital certificates and signatures for the staff of the education - training and health sectors.
Besides, personnel of the single-window divisions of communes and towns were given instructions in the use of online public services and the digitalisation of papers. Socio-political organisations at the communal level were trained in using document management software and administering via the internet, Chieu elaborated./.
