Among them are deputy federal ministers, vice-governors and deputy heads of federal services, state and municipal employees, managers and participants in project offices for digital development. The center for training leaders of digital transformation was formed in 2019 on the basis of the Higher School of Public Administration of the RANEPA.

More than 13,000 state and municipal employees, in accordance with the state assignment, have been trained in digital competencies under the 'Personnel for the Digital Economy' program. Among them are 40 people at the level of deputy federal ministers and heads of federal agencies. All those who have been trained are already working with digital projects. Solving methodological cases from the largest technology companies during training, civil servants from Russian regions receive modern management competencies and skills necessary to manage digital projects and implement modern services, as well as develop a common vision of the principles of digital development of our country, comments Deputy Prime Minister Akimov

According to Akimov, the goal of the educational program, developed with the support of the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media, the Ministry of Economy and the largest Russian companies, will allow officials not only to gain knowledge and skills, but also to form a living community of managers who in the coming years will lead the processes of digital transformation in Russia.

In 2019, among the graduates of the program "Head of Digital Transformation for Senior Managers" are Deputy Ministers of Digital Development of Communications and Mass Media Maxim Parshin and Evgeny Kislyakov, Deputy Minister of Health of the Russian Federation Elena Boyko, Deputy Ministers of Economic Development Ilya Torosov and Savva Shipov, Deputy Head of Rosselkhoznadzor Svetlana Alekseeva.

Educational programs consist of various blocks, including courses on working with data, information security, data visualization, on creating project teams, developing projects and documents, and digital transformation of public administration. A separate program, fully available online, introduced the main digital technologies and concepts of the digital economy, and made it possible to find out what skills and competencies will be in demand in the near future.

As a result of the course, students of the main programs defended digital projects that already exist and are developing, or are preparing for implementation in the region or at the federal level.

As the system of government changes, becoming more "digital" and convenient for citizens, there are growing demands on the personnel who manage the processes of digitalization: these people must have a wide range of competencies. The modern civil servant responsible for the implementation of digital projects and the transfer of work processes to the digital environment should not so much rely on developers as be able to understand in a team with his colleagues - what people expect from services and in general from public administration - and actively engage in changes for the convenience and satisfaction of citizens, improving the quality of life. State and municipal employees should become part of a modern managerial culture, without which digital transformation will not take place, comments Maria Shklyaruk, General Director of the Center for Advanced Management Decisions

In parallel with the development of the educational program for Russian officials, in 2019 the Center released the reports "State as a platform: people and technologies" and "Agile-approach in public administration: navigator of digital transformation." Analytical works were formed using materials from educational programs and are devoted to the introduction of data-based management principles and the modernization of public administration in general. Reports are available to a wide range of users.

The main students of CDTO educational programs are civil servants from federal authorities and Russian regions who have different education and professional experience, different levels of training in the field of digitalization. However, in the modern world, constant training, advanced training throughout his life has become the norm, regardless of what diploma a person received in his youth. "Zyfra" is a modern form of literacy. Moreover, digital transformation is not a panacea, but the condition is necessary. The critical factor of success is not a certain area of ​ ​ work or specific professional training, and not literally mastering technology, but a change in the very culture of perception and use of all modern things that are happening around us, RANEPA Rector Vladimir Mau comments

All civil servants who received training received certificates of advanced training or diplomas of professional retraining.
