Acquire deep ICT skills contextualised for public service

ICT programmes specially developed for the public sector.
Make a deeper impact on your agency’s digital transformation, thrive in your job role
and be set for the next stage of your career.

Gain mastery of ICT skills while unlocking their application in the public sector

Digital transformation is taking place at a fast pace.
So much so that what is in today may be out tomorrow.
If change is the only constant, then the only way you can embrace change
– and even thrive with it – is to improve continuously.

You have the mindset of constant beta. You are always improving. Your skills are ever evolving.
You don’t just want to keep in pace with digital developments. You want to keep steps ahead.

But the public sector’s basic courses on digital technologies do not meet your advanced needs.
And the higher-level ICT programmes offered by private training providers?
Bridging the gap between learning and application is harder than you think
because the content is not contextualised for the public sector’s needs and goals.

That’s where GovTech Digital Academy comes in.
