Resources and comments will inspire programs, events, and practices of Canada’s Digital Academy.
Hosted by the Canada School of Public Service, Canada’s Digital Academy will help develop digital acumen, skills and capacity across the federal public service and other jurisdictions, and ultimately, empower public servants to work more nimbly in a digitally enabled environment.
The Academy’s starting components will include:
- Digital foundations, a suite of online and event-based learning
- Applied digital solutions for leaders to build a deeper digital lens into programs, policies, and services
- Digital for senior leaders focusing on trends, strategy, and governance
- Premium streams for specialist learning (Core Skills, Data, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Development & Automation, Design, and Disruption)
The Digital Academy is collaborative in nature and open by default. It will gather collaborators from various levels of government, the private sector, the non-profit sector, and diverse communities; each contributing their own strengths, knowledge, experience and expertise to improve the public service and government services through digital.
For example, the Academy will work with the Canadian Digital Service, the UK Government Digital Service, the Ontario Digital Service, the Nova Scotia Digital Service, Bayview Yards and the Institute of Governance.
If you’re interested in partnering, you must to have a genuine focus on the public good and be okay with an open approach. We’ll share all of the research and resources we create or collect back out publicly.
