Digital Talent/Digital Talent Strategy


Attracting, developing, and retaining digital talent in the GC

The Government of Canada’s Digital Talent Strategy defines a long-term vision for attracting, developing, and retaining digital talent.

We define digital talent as people who work in digital disciplines. They have the skills and experience in fields including but not limited to development, data and user experience design.

They typically work in multidisciplinary teams, require modern tools and technology, and take a user-centered approach to solving problems.

The Strategy is now published

Thank you to the digital community for your support in improving and honing the GC Digital Talent Strategy over its many iterations.
