Australian Public Service Commission

Welcome to Learning and development

One of the key responsibilities of the Australian Public Service Commission is to deliver leadership, learning and development services to the APS. In performing this role, the Commission advantage for agencies is that the Commission knows and understands the needs, culture, future challenges and Government expectations of the APS like no other provider can.

The Commission provides a national, comprehensive and coordinated suite of leading-edge leadership, learning and development programmes, events and services. These assist in providing APS agencies and their employees with the capability to deliver government priorities, objectives and outcomes.

Ethics Hypothetical
At the top of the Government’s agenda for the APS is reinvigorating the Westminster tradition of an independent public service and building a professionalised public service committed to excellence. Central to the achievement of both is a commitment to an ethical APS.

These and many more complex and engaging issues will be considered during the Ethics Hypothetical. This exciting event will be facilitated by leading educator, communications consultant, broadcaster and author, Mr Peter Thompson. He will be posing challenging ethical issues to a panel of senior public servants, politicians, academics and third sector officials.

Woden Training Facility
The Australian Public Service Commission training facilities can cater for functions and seminars up to 150 guests. The stylish décor and furnishings, elegant atmosphere and modern technical equipment ensure a distinct and professional event.
