The workshop is based on APCICT’s Academy of ICT Essentials for Government Leaders, a flagship training programme consisting of an 11-module curriculum that aims to enhance awareness and skills of government leaders and civil servants on leveraging ICT in national development strategies and programmes. It aims to impart training on 3 Academy modules: Module 3 on e-Government Applications, Module 5 on Internet Governance, and Module 6: Network and Information Security and Privacy. The workshop will be attended by over 60 representatives at the Director levels from various ministries including Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Information, Ministry of Transport and Communication and Ministry of Education.
