Training of Trainers on ICT and e-Governance

The use of information and communication technology (ICT) systems have been transforming our life style and work life. New markets and new business models have emerged to support the entry, storage, processing, analysis and presentation of information, and these are continuing to evolve and advance at a rapid pace. Global stock markets are now driven by trade in technology-based companies as much as commodity and traditional industries, and ICT is continually being looked at in new ways as a means for improving socio-economic conditions of people, and as a tool for achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Information is being collected in public organizations through different channels and the use of technology in collection and processing is very high.

The implementation of ICT in public organization is increasing be it in the form of computerization or information system implementation. The knowledge on ICT needs to be enhanced with training and education. This will make easy for the implementation of such ICT based system in public organizations. Thus it is necessary to develop trainers who can advocate and train on ICT related issues to the human resources of public organizations who will be key persons in implementing the concept of ICT in their organizational business process.
