In 2023, the MTA has gained several positive achievements in the production of technical materials. The academy has defined the training of human resources to ensure the development of e-government in the MND as one of the key tasks in this year. Thereby, the academy has actively updated and supplemented the contents of training programs on e-Government development and digital transformation according to regulations of the State and the MND.

Sr. Lt. Gen. Le Huy Vinh required the MTA to effectively implement resolutions and conclusions of the Central Military Commission on military-defense, education and training work while focusing on enhancing the quality of education and training, and scientific research to meet the requirements of digital transformation in the MND.
