What are On the Circuit Talks?

The Canada School of Public Service’s Digital Academy is pleased to launch its pilot of On the Circuit Talks. They are 45-minute, talk-show type, monthly sessions where we have lively, open discussions, including debates, on some of the most current and emerging digital-related topics that are top of mind. Public servants have long asked for discussions like this one. We’ve designed these Talks with you in mind. This is your chance to speak with us directly, share your ideas and insights. We’re including you in our discussions with experts.

Upcoming Session

Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence and Biometric Technology

The next Canada School of Public Service’s Digital Academy On the Circuit Talks is taking place on March 31, 2022, from 12:30 PM to 1:15 PM (ET). We want to hear what you think about responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) and biometric technology in the government.

Come and learn what AI and biometric technology is about. Be part of the discussion as we talk about how it is being used, concerns that you may have, potential opportunities and more.

The School has successfully launched the pilot of these Talks. The first session on the importance of understanding data, held on February 28, 2022, was a hit. We had a great discussion.

Send us your questions in advance: (https://forms.office.com/r/t8HD61i1c5), or ask them live. Whichever you prefer. Looking forward to seeing you on the Circuit!
