Collaborating to succeed Collaboration is key to successfully finding and prototyping solutions during the Digital Accelerator. We are always exploring and testing different tools, activities, and workshops that to help facilitate collaboration. | |
Designing an empowering experienceGreat products and services are human-centred and designed for and with users. This applies to the Digital Accelerator too. We design experiences with our participants in mind and support them every step of the way with coaching and mentoring, so they can have an enriching, empowering experience. We give teams the skills and tools they need to help them shift in the way they work, create, and share.

History of the Digital Accelerator
In Spring 2021, CSPS welcomed its first cohort of Digital Accelerator teams for a 13-week, completely virtual hands-on learning experience. Five teams participated, from four departments:
- Canada Revenue Agency
- Department of Fisheries and Oceans
- Department of National Defence
- Canada School of Public Service
In this cohort, teams focused on internal-facing challenges and solutions, including new employee onboarding, simplifying procurement processes, improving internal access to data, supporting employee training and learning, and making operational decisions using data and insights.
As a team, they worked together to pinpoint their users’ needs, improve their digital skills, explore their problems from multiple angles, identify different solution options, develop prototypes and test with users. At the end of the program, the teams pitched their solutions to more than 400 public servants from across the country who participated in Demo Day.

In Winter 2022, CSPS had a second cohort of Digital Accelerator teams for an 11-week, completely virtual hands-on learning experience.
Eight teams participated, from seven different departments:
- Canada Revenue Agency
- Department of Fisheries and Oceans
- Indigenous Services Canada
- Canada School of Public Service
- Transport Canada
- Employment and Social Development Canada
- Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada
In this cohort, teams focused on improving a self-service portal, collecting clean and consistent data to report on engagement, adapting data science work to attract new talent, creating safer devices for employees purposes, redesigning a Web interface, improving data management process, centralizing a reporting product for Business Analysts to make data and insights accessible and reportable and the referral process for field auditors and technical advisors.
At the end of the program, teams were able to work with digital tools and new approaches, be more fluent public servants in the digital sphere and each teams presented demos of their proposed solutions to more than 600 public servants from across the country who participated in the CSPS Digital Accelerator’s Demo Day.
