In 2024, 351 press agencies participated in the Training program, guiding press agencies to conduct assessments and measure the level of digital transformation maturity organized by the Press Digital Transformation Support Center directly and online on October 30-31, 2024.

The data used for input to evaluate and measure the maturity level of digital transformation of newspapers in 2024 is the actual data of the unit from October 1, 2023 to October 31, 2024; the verification documents for each selected criterion must be valid until the time of announcement of the ranking results in 2024.
The total maximum score is 100 points, in which the maximum score for the pillars is: Strategy: 18 points; Digital infrastructure, digital platform and information security: 24 points; Organizational and professional consistency: 20 points; Readers, audiences, listeners: 23 points; and Level of digital technology application: 15 points.
The level of maturity of digital transformation of press agencies is determined based on the total score achieved for the 5 pillars and is classified into 5 levels: Level 1: below 50 points - weak; level 2: from 50 to below 60 points - average; level 3: from 60 to below 70 points - fair; level 4: from 70 to 80 points - good; level 5: above 80 points - excellent.
The issuance of the Press Digital Transformation Maturity Index aims to provide an objective and comprehensive measure of the digital transformation process in the press industry, supporting the realization of the Press Digital Transformation Strategy to 2025, with a vision to 2030. Through this, press agencies will be able to compare and evaluate their progress, thereby discovering strengths and weaknesses, and continuing to improve the process to meet national digital transformation requirements.
This Index also sets out the expectation of creating a digital transformation database for journalism with transparent information, thereby supporting management agencies in providing solutions to promote and effectively manage the journalism industry in the context of increasingly developing digital technology.
