== '''<big>CSPS Digital Accelerator</big>''' ==
<div style="text-align: left">
<h1 style="color:#3f2a56"><strong>Welcome</strong></h1><big>The CSPS Digital Accelerator is a transformative learning experience that helps teams transition to new digital ways of working. The Accelerator provides an opportunity for established teams and their leaders to experiment with collaborative, open, human-centred and iterative ways of defining problems and prototyping solutions. Through a combination of hands-on workshops, peer learning, coaching and mentoring, participants will apply their new-found skills in design thinking, user research, prototyping, product management, and agile to address a real business problem facing their organization.</big><br>

=====<big>'''''Learning by doing'''''</big>=====
<big>Teams get hands-on opportunities to apply new skills by designing, prototyping, and testing solutions to a real business problem relevant to their department.</big>
<br><br>
|-
|[[File:Unlock.png|left|frameless|85x85px|alt=Decorative image - a lock unlocked]]
|<big>'''''Breaking boundaries'''''</big><br><big>We aim to break down boundaries - in the way we work, collaborate, learn, and innovate. The Accelerator is constantly exploring, producing, and trying out different tools, resources, workshops, and activities in order to help create more digitally capable teams in the public service.</big>
<br>
|-
|[[File:Strong.png|left|frameless|85x85px|alt=Decorative image - muscle ]]
|<big>'''''Changing with confidence'''''</big><br><big>Modernizing requires change, and we recognize the importance of changing with confidence. If folks are first instilled with confidence, they may be more willing to embrace change and be more actively a part of creating change.</big>
<br>

|<big>'''''Collaborating to succeed'''''</big><br><big>Collaboration is key to successfully finding and prototyping solutions during the Accelerator. We are always exploring and testing different tools, activities, and workshops that to help facilitate collaboration.</big><br><br>

|
====='''''<big>Designing an empowering experience</big>'''''=====
<big>Great products and services are human-centred and designed for and with users. This applies to the 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.</big>

<br><h1 style="color:#3f2a56"><div id="Cohort 1"><strong>Accelerator History</strong></div></h1>
<big>In Spring 2021, CSPS welcomed its first cohort of Accelerator teams for a 13-week, completely virtual hands-on learning experience. Five teams participated, from four departments: </big>
*<big>Canada Revenue Agency</big>
*<big>Department of Fisheries and Oceans</big>
*<big>Department of National Defence</big>
*<big>Canada School of Public Service</big>
<big>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.</big>
<big>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. </big>
