Implementing Resolution 57-NQ/TW dated December 22, 2024 of the Politburo on breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation and national digital transformation with a vision to 2045, Decision No. 131/QD-TTg dated January 25, 2022 of the Prime Minister approving the Project "Enhancing the application of information technology and digital transformation in education and training for the period 2022 - 2025, with a vision to 2030", the Ministry of Education and Training is implementing the Digital Competency Framework and Digital Skills Education according to Circular 02/2025/TT-BGDDT regulating the Digital Competency Framework for learners (Circular 02).

According to Thai Van Tai, Director of the General Education Department, the Department has recently implemented some initial work, with the spirit of introducing appropriate content into the curriculum in an integrated or enhanced direction, especially without disrupting subjects and having enough legal basis for schools to easily implement.

In particular, the Department of General Education analyzed the 2018 General Education Program for Information Technology and other subjects to determine the level and requirements for digital competence according to the Digital Competency Framework prescribed in Circular 02 to develop a detailed table describing the level and requirements for digital competence at all levels from primary to high school, meeting the goals of the 2018 General Education Program, in accordance with international practices and Vietnamese educational practices.

The General Education Department also analyzed and reviewed the 2018 General Education Program for each level, class, subject/educational activity to find out the locations where there are opportunities to develop digital competencies for students in each class of Primary, Secondary and High School. Then, some new teaching content not yet included in the program was developed to meet the requirements of the issued digital competency framework.

At the same time, draft an official dispatch guiding the pilot implementation of the digital competency framework for high school students and continuing education students, send documents to request opinions from units, organizations, experts, and scientists. Draft a Decision to establish a Drafting Committee, a Council for Appraisal of Training Materials for Teachers of Digital Citizenship Skills at Secondary and High School levels, and deploy training for core teachers in localities.

Reporting on the draft digital competency framework for teachers, Deputy Director of the Department of Teachers and Educational Administrators (Ministry of Education and Training) Pham Tuan Anh said that the Department has coordinated with UNICEF and related units to establish a Research Board, which has been operating for a long time, conducting surveys in localities. On that basis, a draft digital competency framework for teachers was proposed and a workshop was held to solicit comments. The competencies are divided into two main groups: Basic digital competencies and Specialized digital competencies, demonstrating the ability to apply digital technology solutions and tools in implementing teachers' professional activities.

Deputy Minister of Education and Training Pham Ngoc Thuong emphasized that the development of a draft document to implement the Digital Competency Framework for students and teachers is very necessary, especially in the context that the Party and State leaders have launched the "Popular Digital Education" movement to the entire population.

Deputy Minister Pham Ngoc Thuong noted that the draft needs to provide specific content and criteria for the Digital Competency Framework for each student at all levels according to Circular 02, which when applied must be suitable to the reality in each locality and school. The process of drafting the document must be careful and thorough but not too perfectionist, identifying the challenges that will be faced.

Regarding the issue of digital skills training for teachers at all levels, Deputy Minister Pham Ngoc Thuong suggested that there should be a specific plan, and that units must coordinate closely, smoothly and effectively. On that basis, determine the form of organization and content to be included in the training so as not to cause major disruptions to the program. When teaching, there must be written instructions to ensure continuity and no interruptions.

“When building the Digital Competency Framework for teachers and students, it is also aimed at concretizing Circular 02 for each level of education, in line with the 2018 General Education Program in an open direction, meeting the development speed of information technology and will manage the content brought into schools,” said the Deputy Minister.
