'''We’re about to launch the first prototype of Canada’s Digital Academy, and wanted to provide an update and an invitation.'''
<br><br>
Our mission is to create a more digitally capable public sector, whether it’s as a workplace for employees, a service provider, a policy developer, or a social and economic steward. Here’s the end goal: Canada sets the worldwide bar for digital government and service.
<br><br>
The only way to make this happen is to work across organizational lines, levels and boundaries, so we’re designing a few options:
<br><br>
*'''Digital foundations''', a suite of online and event-based learning
*'''Premium streams for specialist learning''': Development, Artificial intelligence, Design, Data science, and Disruptive technologies
*'''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
<br><br>
'''<span style='color:#545454; font-size:175%'>We Can't Do This Alone</span>'''
<br><br>
We want to bring together the best learning and knowledge available. The subject matter is quickly evolving, and promising practices emerge constantly.
<br><br>
We need to take a partnership approach, creating space to bring in experts and mentors from government, academia, and the private and social sectors. If you’re interested in partnering, you’ll need a laser focus on the public good and love working in the open. We will share all of the research and resources we create or collect back out publicly.
<br><br>
We also need partners to see themselves as one puzzle piece of many. We’re looking for learning and training solutions that build on the basics, as well as deep dives into topics. Our draft topic map outlines the streams and practices we want to deliver to learners.
<br><br>
Want to be part of our network of specialists and experts? Contact us to start a conversation.
<br><br>
'''<span style='color:#545454; font-size:175%'>For learners</span>'''
<br><br>
'''The call for nominations for our beta cohorts went out to departments on December 18 with a deadline of January 11.''' We’ll be looking for creative and open-minded public servants across multiple disciplines and levels. Stay tuned for more!
