Introducing the Career Transition and Support Centre (CTSC)
Message from the Public Service Commissioner
The Government has established a Career Transition and Support Centre within the Australian Public Service Commission, to assist with the redeployment of excess and potentially excess staff and to provide advice to agencies on redeployment and recruitment matters.
The centre will provide tailored and structured services to agencies and public servants, and will work collaboratively across the APS to identify opportunities for staff redeployment. It will also work with agencies to provide best practice advice on the application and implementation of the Redeployment Principles, to ensure a consistent and coordinated approach across the public service.
It is vital to our ongoing capability that we retain in employment experienced APS employees and employees with critical specialist skills. I encourage agencies to make full use of the services of the centre, including during periods of recruitment and growth, when access to job-ready experienced APS staff can significantly reduce both the time and costs associated with recruitment activities.
I look forward to working in partnership with you to ensure that excess staff have access to the full range of support services available, and to providing assistance more generally with your recruitment and redeployment needs.
Lynelle Briggs, Public Service Commissioner
