What is the status of staffing? As in any new field, the transition to the digital economy is characterized by a lack of qualified personnel. Admittedly, this problem has always been relevant. It is said that we are facing obstacles in the matter of personnel. Because there is no reserve that can operate in a new field, in a new direction. Let’s give an example here. Now, the positions of deputy heads in the direc- tion of digitization are being introduced in ministries and agencies. Our Min- istry is responsible for recommending and, if necessary, securing experienced specialists for these positions. At a time when the Ministry is responsible for digitization in all areas of the country, and in some cases, it needs a profession- al expert, why should this gap be filled? What should be done about this? A solution to this was also found, and a solid foundation was laid for it. After all, the greatest wealth of Uzbekistan is the youth, who make up more than half of the population. Therefore, increasing the influence of the younger generation in society is important in state policy, and great attention is being paid to their acquisition of new specialties and professions. As everyone knows, with the idea of the President, today, the attention to youth throughout the republic Global dunyoda ilm-fan va ta‘limdagi innovatsion rivojlanishning zamonaviy trendlari 15 dekabr, 2022 yil. 240 should be further strengthened, they should be widely involved in culture, art, physical education, and sports, the formation of skills in the use of information technologies in young people, reading “5 important initiatives” are being im- plemented in order to promote and increase the employment of women. As a part of the third initiative – to organize effective use of computer technologies and the Internet among the population and young people, 30 digital technolo- gy training centers were established in the regions. To date, more than 7,200 students have completed training courses. In its turn, within the framework of the “One Million Programmers” project, which is aimed at teaching young people, students at general education schools, students of higher educational institutions, academic lyceums, and vocational colleges, the basics of programming, more than 69,000 students are learning. 5.8 thousand of them successfully completed the courses. Everyone knows that the most effective way to train highly qualified personnel is to teach them from childhood. For this purpose, in accordance with the decision of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan on September 14, 2017, a school specialized in in- depth teaching of sciences related to information and communication technolo- gies named after Muhammad al-Khorazmi was established. In December 2019, the modern building of this educational institution was commissioned. Now, 680 boys and girls who successfully passed exams in math- ematics and foreign languages are studying in grades 5-11 of the school. Great positive changes have also taken place in the field of education at Tashkent University of Informat i on Technologies named after Muhammad al-Khorazmi. Starting from the 2018/2019 academic year, the university was transferred to the credit module system of modern education, and currently, 9,609 students are studying in this system. A joint Uzbek-Belarusian faculty was also established in the structure of the university. In addition, a modern educa- tional media center was opened at the University thanks to a technical grant of 1.6 million dollars from the Japan International Cooperation Organization (JICA). The media center has all facilities for filming and producing video content. In accordance with the President’s decision on January 7, 2019, Amity Univer- sity in Tashkent opened the academic year in September 2019.
