Training on CDMIS, KMS held to improve public service delivery

KATHMANDU: A two-day technical training on Knowledge Management System (KMS) and Capacity Development Management Information system (CDMIS) concluded in Kavre. Ministry of Federal Affairs and General Administration (MOFAGA) had developed and updated the system to improve its service delivery and information disclosure practices. The system has been implemented with technical support from the Provincial and Local Government Support Programme (PLGSP), the national flagship programme. As informed, the capacity building training gathered four expert participants from each Provincial Centre for Good Governance (PCGG) and Province Programme Implementation Unit (PPIU) from all seven provinces in physical mode this week. National Programme Director of PLGSP, Balaram Rijal, said that the training was organised to strengthen the capacity of the technical assistance employees, thereby improving the portal of CDMIS for effective management of records and disintegrated data of the participants so as to further improve public service delivery of sub-national government. "Federalism is needed for ensuring the fundamental rights of the citizens as well as for the nation to enhance its performance," Rijal said. Likewise, National Programme Manager Chiranjivi Timilsina shared that the training will contribute to properly maintain disintegrated data-based evidence to monitor and show progress PLGSP made in enhancing capacity of the elected representatives and government officials. Representing development partners, UNDP Federal Governance Specialist Ian MacDougall highlighted that this CDMIS system is a tool that can be used to elevate capacity for the effectiveness of training. “Effectiveness of CDMIS and KMS will be measured in the grid of real-based disintegrated data. We will also design and deliver refresher training and update the training content as per the need considering the feedback received from participants,” PLGSP monitoring and evaluation specialist Chandra Kanta Sharma said. Nagesh Badu, e-governance specialist from PLGSP, emphasized the importance of training to enhance the knowledge of technical experts in systematically managing the data and boosting PCGG performance as a centre of excellence. In the closing ceremony, training curriculum development expert Bishnu Neupane from PCGG, Lumbini province, shared that this training rekindled the hope of effectively operating the knowledge management system with granular performance data. Bagmati Province Capacity Development Officer Bina Kumari Panta said its outcome will be manifested in maintaining the data and resource materials as envisioned by the CDMIS by stakeholders in all the provinces. As many as 45 technical assistance experts from PCGG and PPIU serving in seven provinces participated in the training. READ ALSO:
