The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) is the primary entity of the executive branch of the Government responsible for planning, developing, and promoting the national ICT development agenda. DICT joined the Initiative in January 2020. Currently, DICT is operating digital skills programmes reaching out to both public and private sectors, as well as to remote communities in the rural areas.

DICT holds various ICT skills and literacy training at Digital Transformation Centres, and as of May 2021, there are more than 4,000 centres established nationwide. DICT has demonstrated its readiness to fulfil its commitments by taking full advantage of web conferencing tools to deliver trainings.
