After being trained, press agencies will register and log in to the account provided on the system to self-assess and measure the level of maturity of press digitalization for their press agencies. The assessment and measurement model includes 42 criteria divided into 10 component indicators and grouped into 5 pillars of press digitalization, with a maximum total score of 100 points.
To ensure comprehensiveness and objectivity, the assessment and measurement of the maturity level of digital transformation of press is assigned by the Ministry of Information and Communications to the Press Department to preside over, coordinate with relevant agencies and experts to review, collect data, compare data, conduct independent appraisal and assessment of the maturity level of digital transformation of press agencies, based on the self-assessment results of the press agencies.
Based on the assessment results of the expert team, the assessment scores of each criterion of the press agency can be adjusted. The assessment and ranking results will be publicly announced annually on the Electronic Information Portal of the Ministry of Information and Communications at https://mic.gov.vn and the Information Portal of the Press Digital Transformation Support Center at https://pdt.gov.vn.

Speaking at the announcement ceremony, Mr. Luu Dinh Phuc - Director of the Press Department emphasized: The successful experience of newspapers that early adopted digital transformation is to combine content with technology, and to consider readers as the center. Content aims to pursue the truth; technology has no delay; understand where readers are spending their time and respond to it with appropriate and attractive digital product experiences.
Digital technology, organizational model, newsroom management, human resource management, revenue diversification, and customer experience are the major issues that newspapers must address when innovating journalism.
