IS THIS COURSE RIGHT FOR YOU?

How much do you know about the relationship between the public sector and the NSW government?

Whether you’re a new or experienced public servant, having a sound understanding of public sector framework and governance is essential to your career success.

This course will give you a comprehensive understanding of the Australian system of government that you can easily apply to your own role.

In doing so it will give you a clearer line of sight between your work and the impact it makes on the people of NSW.

An understanding of policy development was identified by the NSW public sector leaders as one of the

Skills for Success . This course builds on the foundations developed in IPAA’s free one hour webinars: Skills for Success: Operating successfully in the NSW Government, and Skills for Success: Surviving the election and changes in MoG.

You will also learn about the important role you play as a public servant and build your knowledge of recent public sector reforms that are relevant to you.
