On Tuesday, June 10, 2025, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Public Service, Mrs. Catherine Bitarakwate Musingwiire, officially inaugurated the Post-Implementation Training of Trainers (ToT) for the Human Capital Management System (HCM) at the Ministry’s Headquarters Training Facility.
The training, scheduled to run from June 10 to June 20, 2025, brings together selected Human Resources personnel from various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) and Local Governments (LGs) across Phases 1, 2, and 3 of the HCM rollout. This initiative is part of the Ministry’s broader strategy to ensure the successful adoption and sustainable implementation of the HCM system.
In the PS’s remarks, she highlighted the key objectives of the ToT, including strengthening institutional capacity, enhancing system adoption, and promoting continuous knowledge transfer across the public service. She provided an update on the current status of HCM implementation and emphasized the critical role of change management in the transition to a modern, digital HR ecosystem.
This training is pivotal in building a cadre of trainers who will cascade the knowledge and skills required for the effective utilization of the HCM system. It is through your commitment that we can achieve full adoption and unlock the benefits of improved service delivery, transparency, and efficiency across government institutions.
The ToT serves as a cornerstone in the Ministry’s ongoing efforts to modernize public service management and ensure that all public officers are equipped to use the HCM system effectively.
On day one of the hands-on Training of Trainers (ToT) for the Human Capital Management System (HCM), participants engaged in in-depth sessions covering two critical modules: Establishment Management Control (EMC) and the Employee Information Manager (EIM).
The EMC module training focused on vote-wise workflow processes, including key functions such as initiating and executing trade-offs, conducting Establishment Structure Reviews, and navigating the overall approval workflows associated with establishment management.
In parallel, the EIM module session provided participants with a comprehensive walkthrough of end-to-end data entry and approval processes, emphasizing the importance of data accuracy, completeness, and the proper management of supporting attachments.
