Data Engineering and Analytics - March 2025

02.03.2025

The Upskill Program in Data Engineering and Analytics has been developed in collaboration with leading Bulgarian experts in data processing and analysis. Its goal is to provide participants with essential knowledge and skills for a successful career as a Data Engineer, ETL Developer, Data Analyst, BI Specialist, and other related roles.

The program consists of five consecutive courses that gradually introduce participants to the fundamentals and best practices in data engineering. Learners start with mathematical concepts and data fundamentals, advance through databases and SQL, explore the principles of Data Warehousing and ETL processes, and conclude with training in visualization tools and techniques for building effective and intuitive data representations.

Each course includes practical exercises and projects, allowing participants to apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios and further develop their data engineering expertise. The program focuses on the practical application of concepts in real business contexts, ensuring that learners acquire both theoretical understanding and hands-on skills. Throughout the training, participants will build ETL processes, design and manage Data Warehouses, and visualize data to support decision-making across various industries.

Upon successful completion, participants will be prepared to enter the dynamic and fast-growing field of Data Engineering, contributing to the transformation of data into valuable business insights.

 The Digital Bulgaria 2025 Programme aims at modernising and increasing the widespread implementation of intelligent information technology (IT) solutions in all areas of the economy and social life. Another objective of the programme focuses on the strategic enhancement of digital competence and skills at all levels.

The Digital Bulgaria 2025 programme is coordinated by the Ministry of Transport, Information Technology and Communication of Bulgaria. Digital Bulgaria 2025 sets out 3 main objectives when it comes to digital skills development on a national level: 

  • Modernisation of school and higher education in the field of ICT

The implementation of this objective includes key activities such as: promoting the development of a modern and reliable information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure at schools, improving assessment of students’ digital competences upon graduation from high school, modernising the educational curriculum and teaching methods, and upskilling teachers, educators and training providers. Activities also aim to further strengthen cooperation between education, industry and the non-governmental sector.

  • Increasing the number of highly qualified specialists in the field of ICT

To implement this objective two key activities are considered: increasing the number of young people trained for ICT professions, and promoting the development of qualified ICT specialists through a focus on lifelong learning and upskilling approaches. 

  • Improving  the digital and ICT skills of the workforce

Under this objective, upskilling and reskilling programmes financed by the Bulgarian Government are considered. 

More detailed information about the digital skills priorities of the Programme can be found in the full Programme document (pages 33-34) and Roadmap (both available in Bulgarian).

 Protocol 72 of the regular meeting of the Council of Ministers of 16 December 2020 adopted the Concept for the Development of Artificial Intelligence in Bulgaria until 2030.

The document proposes a comprehensive vision for the development and use of artificial intelligence in Bulgaria. It is based on the strategic and programme documents of the European Commission, which consider artificial intelligence as one of the main drivers of digital transformation in Europe.

The main goal of the concept is to unite the efforts on the development and implementation of artificial intelligence systems by creating scientific, expert, business and managerial capacity. It is envisaged to provide a modern communication and scientific infrastructure for the development of new generation digital technologies. The education and lifelong learning system will be improved. The development of research and innovation in key sectors will be supported, and work will be done to put in place an ethical legal and regulatory framework that enjoys public trust.

Concept for the Development of Artificial Intelligence in Bulgaria by 2030 (official)

“Artificial intelligence has long been a concept that is not abstract. It is becoming ubiquitous , many businesses are focused in creating innovations based on it. Some of the sectors will be subject to a complete transformation as a result of the development of artificial intelligence, some will be changed forever,” Rosen Zhelyazkov, minister of transport, information technology and communications, said at a government meeting.
