The Technology Training Portal offers digital e-learning solutions to UN Mission ICT professionals and other end-users, responding to the needs of both civilian staff and uniformed personnel.
The entire community of peacekeeping missions can benefit from the Technology Training Portal. Mission Staff can build and enhance their technology skills “anytime, anywhere” through these e-learning programs, which are organized into a single course or in learning paths and tailored to the specific UN Staff requirements.
The platform will be periodically populated with new relevant content to better respond to the learner’s new expectations and needs.
Civilian Staff and Uniformed Personnel Training
The different courses categories are available in the portal landing page, providing quick access to different learning programs. Each learning program contains all the pre-planned, role-based learning activities in the form of self-paced courses and virtual and/or classroom-based events.
The Portal also lists external courses in an effort to become the "one stop shop" for training. Users will be requested to upload their certificates, after external course completion, to the Portal. This will facilitate future reference and optimize training management. Detailed info will be available at each course.
Uniformed Staff Training is intended for military & police personnel before and after their deployment to UN Missions. These courses will be normally delivered/managed by the UN C4ISR Academy for Peace Operations and in partnership with Member States.
Civilian Staff Training is managed at the UNGSC level through the UNICC Training Management Team.
