ESDC Event Sharing Network
This network can be used to increase collaboration amongst branches, regions and workplaces within ESDC. It allows employees and teams to maximize resources, build bridges and spread best practices by sharing event details with each other.
Increasing the diversity of learning opportunities will lead to a department that is more agile, equipped and inclusive along with more connected. If your event is online and appeals to a large group of public servants please share it with the below groups. Please continue adding the contact details of groups interested in employee engagement particularly at the local office level.
If you require any assistance please email [1]
