Welcome to GCDigital Community hub!

Len Bastien, Senior Advisor to the Chief Information Officer of Canada and Senior Assistant Deputy Minister, Digital Community Development Office of the Chief Information Officer of Canada

I am thrilled to inaugurate this new GCDigital Community Hub which was designed to help us connect, share insights, and celebrate our collective achievements as a digital community. This Hub is a forum to engage in talent-related service offerings such as central recruitment processes, mentoring, and learning and development opportunities, connect to relevant events and learning opportunities, and share knowledge and opinions about talent initiatives and innovation.

The GCDigital Community Hub is more than just a Wiki page; it is a space where we come together to share, learn, and thrive in our pursuit of excellence in the digital era. In our interconnected world, the power of collaboration cannot be overstated. The GCDigital Community Hub aims to cultivate a sense of community across the enterprise, bridging gaps, and fostering connections among diverse federal departments and agencies. We envision this space as a place where ideas flourish, conversations ignite, and collaborations thrive.

As we embark on this journey together, I encourage each of you to actively participate, contribute your unique perspectives, and leverage the GCDigital Community Hub to its fullest potential. Let's embrace this opportunity to shape the future of digital talent in government, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing, sparking ideas, and charting the course of our collective achievements.
Thank you for being an integral part of the GCDigital Community.
