Becoming a digital society does not happen overnight by turning on servers or installing wifi in homes.

A foundational element is the systematic development of digital competencies over a period of time.

Digital competencies mean not only building a team of IT specialists, but also engendering widespread digital skills across the nations’ citizens.

This in turn requires digital education at many levels: university, gymnasiums, basic schools, as well as specialized training for ICT professionals.

The end result is a comprehensive digital skills development system across all sectors of the nation: government, education, business and private sector.
