<h1 style="color:#3f2a56"><strong>Welcome</strong></h1><big>The CSPS Digital Accelerator Program is a transformative learning experience that helps established teams transition to new digital ways of working together. The program consists of a series of facilitated workshops, meet-ups, and events designed to prototype a human-centred solution to a current business problem. Through a combination of practical interventions, peer learning, coaching and mentoring, participants will develop and apply design, product management, and Agile methods to address and advance a business problem faced by their organization.</big> <br>

<h1 style="color:#3f2a56"><div id="Overview"><strong>Overview of the program</strong></div></h1><big>The program consists of a series of facilitated workshops, meet-ups, and events. The program ends with teams presenting at "Demo Day," an opportunity to share their learning journey with other public servants across the Government of Canada. Registration for the CSPS Digital Accelerator Program is currently closed.

<h1 style="color:#3f2a56">'''Welcome'''</h1>The 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 workshops, 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.

The CSPS Digital Accelerator builds on the success of the first two cohorts of the CSPS Digital Academy’s Premium program. Spring 2021 will be the first time we try this approach with teams, and we are excited to work with our partners to make this new approach a success.

The 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.

In addition to learning specific to teams, the CSPS Digital Accelerator offers learning in digital leadership for executives and managers, recognizing their key role in shaping the future of the public service.

<h1 style="color:#3f2a56"><div id="Cohort 1"><strong>History of the Digital Accelerator</strong></div></h1>
 +
 +
 +
<big>In Spring 2021, CSPS welcomed its first cohort of Digital Accelerator teams for a 13-week, completely virtual hands-on learning experience. Five teams participated, from four departments:  </big>
 +
 +
*<big>Canada Revenue Agency</big>
 +
*<big>Department of Fisheries and Oceans</big>
 +
*<big>Department of National Defence</big>
 +
*<big>Canada School of Public Service</big>
 +
 +
 +
<big>In this cohort, teams focused on internal-facing challenges and solutions, including new employee onboarding, simplifying procurement processes, improving internal access to data, supporting employee training and learning, and making operational decisions using data and insights.</big>
 +
 +
 +
<big>As a team, they worked together to pinpoint their users’ needs, improve their digital skills, explore their problems from multiple angles, identify different solution options, develop prototypes and test with users. At the end of the program, the teams pitched their solutions to more than 400 public servants from across the country who participated in Demo Day.  </big>

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).

<h1 style="color: #3f2a56"><div id="Specialized learning">'''Specialized learning - for employees of participating organizations''' </div></h1>Learning 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.
+
In this cohort, teams focused on improving a self-service portal, collecting clean and consistent data to report on engagement, adapting data science work to attract new talent, creating safer devices for employees purposes, redesigning a Web interface, improving data management process, centralizing a reporting product for Business Analysts to make data and insights accessible and reportable and the referral process for field auditors and technical advisors.  
−
Here is what you can expect to learn in the specialized learning streams:
  −
* '''Data:''' How to conduct data analyses, visualize data and understand ethical considerations in the use of data.
  −
* '''Design:''' Knowledge of design thinking, inclusive and accessible design, service design, content strategy, content design, information architecture, usability testing.
  −
* '''AI/ML:''' Bayesian statistics and probability theory, Python pandas, natural language processing, coding.
  −
* '''Development:''' Fundamentals of software development as applied to front-end applications and user interfaces.
  −
* '''DevOps:''' Agile software development processes, open source projects and software, Python coding, cloud computing, Docker, security and test automation, web accessibility (a11Y) testing.<br>
     −
<h1 style="color:#3f2a56"><div id="Registration">'''Registration'''</div></h1>
  −
All prospective learners from participating organizations need to complete the Registration form by '''Friday, March 12'''. This includes executives and managers and those who won’t be part of a team but still want to register in dedicated Discover Digital classroom offerings or express interest in one of our specialized learning bootcamps.
     −
'''Register''' <br>
+
At the end of the program, teams were able to work with digital tools and new approaches, be more fluent public servants in the digital sphere and each teams presented demos of their proposed solutions to more than 600 public servants from across the country who participated in the CSPS Digital Accelerator’s Demo Day.
