OVERVIEW OF CoE INITIATIVE
The Centres of Excellence (CoE) programme was launched by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in 2000, aiming to support capacity building in the field of information and communication technologies (ICTs). Designed to offer continuous education to ICT professionals and executives in the public and private spheres through face-to-face or distance learning programmes, the Centres serve as regional focal points for professional development, research, and knowledge sharing, as well as provide specialist training services to external clients. With the support from multilateral and regional organizations, CoE networks have been established in all ITU regions. The current network is composed of 29 Centres across the globe, six each in Africa, the Americas, Arab States and Asia-Pacific regions, five in the Europe region and three in the CIS region.
The second cycle of the new Centre of Excellence programme started in January 2019 and will end in December 2022. A total of 29 institutions were selected to operate as Centres of Excellence during this period. The following institutions were selected in Asia-Pacific to provide trainings in particular six priority areas.
