Initiative overview
As part of its Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP), Romania is investing in advanced digital training for civil servants to accelerate public sector digitalisation. Many institutions lack in-house expertise for IT and data operations, slowing reform and leaving them dependent on external providers. The program aims to train 32,500 officials, including 2,500 senior staff, in areas such as database and system management, business and data analysis, and programming. By developing these skills internally, the government hopes to build a more resilient, capable workforce for ongoing digital transformation.
The initiative is coordinated by the National Agency for Civil Servants with training providers like the National Institute of Administration. It runs until June 2026 and is tied to specific milestones under the RRP.
