Pilot for the Digital Ethics Officier for Public Administration Course starts in October

Digital Ethics in Public Administrations

The rapid advances in advanced digital technologies such as AI, Internet of Things, Quantum Computing and Blockchain, have come with opportunities, but also ample challenges for society. Particularly when used in public administrations it is crucial that these challenges are understood, assessed and addressed appropriately. To aid that process, digital ethics are taking an ever more prominent role.

Designing a course for the new role of Digital Ethics Officer at Public Administrations

To help public administrators gain the appropriate knowledge and skills in the realm of digital ethics, a training program is being developed for the novel role of Digital Ethics Officer for Public Administration (DEO4PA).
