Some educational backgrounds do not suit the job specifications and often hinder employees from carrying out their tasks. In addition, the rotation and type of positions are different from their abilities and experience. Therefore, a strategy is needed to overcome these problems. Therefore, this study aims to describe and analyze personnel competency improvement strategies to increase the bureaucratic reform index. This is descriptive qualitative research with Miles Hubberman's interactive. Data collection techniques used are interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of the study show that to increase the competency of the state civil apparatus in order to increase the index of bureaucratic reform in Kediri Civil Service Agency, it is carried out through three strategies: technical competence, managerial competence, and socio-cultural competence. These strategies showed significant results in increasing personnel competency as well as the bureaucratic reform index.
