The Information Technology and Development Centre of the Ministry of the Interior (SMIT) ensures that Estonia’s public-sector information systems and digital services operate securely and without interruption. Its nearly 400 employees maintain the digital solutions that support national security, police and rescue services, and the state’s wider IT capability.
SMIT and Aeternum have collaborated consistently since 2015, supporting employees in their personal development, self-awareness and internal balance. The training has become an integral part of SMIT’s onboarding programme for new employees.
