Korea and Uzbekistan have shared their experiences in establishing online government services.

The Global Leadership Enhancement Program for Uzbekistan is currently underway at the Central Officials Training Institute in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi-do (Gyeonggi Province). It is a rare, long-term educational program held from April to October, and 13 Uzbek government officials are taking part in it.

In their first four months at the Ministry of Public Administration and Home Affairs, the National Information Society Agency (NIA) and the Central Officials Training Institute, the officials are learning about policies surrounding innovation and administrative procedures, online government services and information and communications technology (ICT). For the remaining two months, they will receive practical training at local IT companies, public institutions and universities, and learn about examples of how ICTs were applied.

The participants will attend lectures and analyze the current state of online government services in Uzbekistan in relation to what they've learned. They will then make presentations on how to improve the systems.

The program was created as a result of a memorandum of understanding signed in April 2014 between the Central Officials Training Institute and the Academy of Public Administration in Uzbekistan to improve the competence of public officials. It is also part of the Ministry of Public Administration and Home Affairs' e-government cooperation project between Korea and Uzbekistan.

"Uzbekistan has established a master plan to set up online government services and focus on developing ICTs and network infrastructure," said Djalalov Muzaffar Mukhitdinovich, an official at the Uzbek Ministry for the Development of Information Technologies and Communications. "I would like to learn more about online services for the private sector, developing ICTs for regional governments, managing e-government projects and using ICTs for government administration."
