AI Competency Framework

Punjab

The AI Competency Framework for Government Officials was presented as a structured approach to categorise AI readiness across Central and State Ministries. The framework enables government departments to systematically assess skill gaps and design targeted capacity building interventions.

The categorisation spans foundational AI literacy for administrative personnel through advanced competencies for policy and procurement decision-makers. This structured approach ensures that officials at every level possess the knowledge required to evaluate, procure, and oversee AI systems within their domains.

By standardising competency expectations, the framework facilitates consistent evaluation of AI readiness across departments and supports the development of tailored training interventions aligned with national AI governance objectives.
