WelcomeThe CSPS Digital Accelerator is a transformative learning experience designed for leaders and teams who want to experiment with more collaborative, open, human-centred and iterative ways of defining problems and developing solutions in a modern government era. It combines self-directed learning, hands-on workhops, specialized learning in technical fields, peer learning, coaching and mentoring in support of teams as they explore real business problems and prototype and test solutions with users.
Overview of the programThe CSPS Digital Accelerator spans 14 weeks in total. It starts with the Exploration phase, where learners are introduced to the Government of Canada Digital Standards, followed by the Discovery phase, where teams are introduced to problem framing and user research. It continues on to the Alpha phase, where teams go through specialized learning in design, data, development, DevOps and artificial intelligence, and start prototyping solution ideas. It ends with Demo Day when teams present their problems and their prototyped solutions to a nationwide audience of public servants and government executives.
Exploration phaseThe Exploration phase is when teams are onboarded, and learners start preparing for the Discovery phase by completing the Digital Readiness Self-assessment and engaging in self-directed and classroom learning focused on the five Government of Canada Digital Standards most closely aligned with the objectives of the CSPS Digital Accelerator.
Self-directed Learning
Access the self-directed learning roadmap (hyperlink) To all prospective Spring 2021 Accelerator participants: Completing the Digital Readiness Assessment and addressing your knowledge gaps in relation to the Government of Canada Digital Standards is an integral part of your learning journey as you get ready to enter the Discovery phase. Make sure you complete the Digital Readiness Self-Assessment by March 17 to give yourself time to explore the learning resources and take the Discover Digital learning modules. Discover Digital SeriesThe CSPS Digital Academy’s Discover series is a suite of foundational courses introducing new mindsets, skills and techniques to help public servants succeed in the digital era. Like the Accelerator’s self-directed learning, the curriculum and topics are closely linked to the Government of Canada Digital Standards. Executives, managers and employees who have been selected to take part in the Accelerator will be registered in classroom offerings of either Discover Digital in Practice, Discover Digital for Managers or Discover Digital for Executives. More details will be communicated in the confirmation email all participants will receive following registration (link to bookmarked Spring 2021 registration section). If there’s room, employees who won’t participate in the Accelerator will also be offered the opportunity to attend one of the Discover Digital modules. Available spaces will be distributed equally between the participating organizations.
Specialized learning streamsLearning bootcamps on specialized topics will be offered in May as part of the Alpha phase. All working-level employees participating in the Accelerator will be asked to select a stream that aligns with their interest, role and existing skills and knowledge.This great opportunity to enhance specialized skills is also extended to employees of participating organizations who aren’t part of an Accelerator team. Available spaces will be distributed equally between the participating organizations. Here is what you can expect to learn in the specialized learning streams:
