Abstract: The purpose of this article is to analyze the current state and trends in the development of the system of additional vocational education (hereinafter — AVE) of state civil and municipal employees in the Russian Federation. The objectives of the analysis were to identify the features and trends of changes in the structure of the AVE programs of state civil and municipal employees, the territorial features of their coverage of training in AVE programs. The study used a statistical analysis of data on the training of state civil and municipal employees for the period 2020–2024 in the territorial context. The results of the analysis showed the presence of stable trends in changing the structure of AVE programs for state civil and municipal employees, uneven development of territorial systems of AVE of state civil and municipal employees. A method for assessing the level of development of territorial systems of AVE of state civil and municipal employees has been proposed, its assessment has been carried out for all constituent entities of the federation in which branches of the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration are located. Measures are proposed aimed at developing the AVE of state civil and municipal employees, improving monitoring in this area and increasing the role of independent certification of state civil and municipal employees. The results of the analysis show that in the country as a whole, the annual coverage of state and municipal employees with training in AVE programs in 2020–2024. consistently amounted to about 30 % of their number. The methodology for assessing the development of the AVE systems of state and municipal employees in the regions makes it possible to compare the levels of development of the AVE systems of state civil servants and municipal employees in the regional context and determine how the subjects of the federation, leading in terms of the level of development of the AVE of state and municipal employees, are attractive for training employees of “their†district or other districts. In terms of the level of development of the AVE systems of state and municipal employees, the federal districts are significantly differentiated, the most developed are the AVE systems in the North-West, Central and Volga federal districts. There is a significant differentiation of the AVE systems of state and municipal employees in the constituent entities of the federation, in which the branches of the RANEPA, the parent organization for meeting the needs of state and municipal bodies in AVE, are located.
