Abstrakt: The article addresses the importance of capacity development among public administrators to ensure the efficient functioning of the state and the provision of quality services to the citizenry. This entails acquiring legal knowledge, ethical principles, and technical skills in areas such as strategic planning, financial management, and policy evaluation. In addressing the evaluation of public administrators' training programs, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods are employed. The methodology delineates the fundamental concepts and key equations to understand the application of these methods in evaluating public administrators' training programs. The findings underscore the significance of specific competencies in public administrators' training. These competencies, combined with comprehensive training encompassing cognitive, attitudinal, and instrumental dimensions, can equip professionals to confront current governmental challenges effectively. The article emphasizes the relevance of capacity development among public administrators and introduces methods such as AHP and TOPSIS to assess and enhance training programs in this field, aiming to bolster the state's capacity to respond efficiently to societal needs.
