Civil Service Live is under way – with a chance for civil servants to find out more about the cross-government learning they can access – much of which is free.

Government Skills is the Cabinet Office team responsible for all cross-government learning and top civil servants have been helping us to champion the Curriculum of recommended learning  – which gives civil servants easy access to the quality-assured learning that matters most.

Pictured are:

The Cabinet Secretary, Sir Chris Wormald, who joined Government Skills’ volunteers at their stand at Civil Service Live in Belfast, while Northern Ireland Office director Caroline Hacker joined Government Skills’ deputy director Martin Petto speaking at Invest in Yourself to Succeed plenary session at the event.

Earlier in the week, Sir Olly Robins, Permanent Under-Secretary, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, left, joined Government Skills’ head of early career management training Neil Alton – architect of the innovative

Achieving Your Potential course for would-be line managers – at Civil Service Live in Glasgow.

“Skills are at the heart of ambitions for a productive and agile Civil Service that can truly deliver on the Government’s missions,” said Sir Olly.

“That’s why I am so pleased to be at Civil Service Live on its opening day and to be able to champion the value of the brilliant learning opportunities available to us all, including digital and data skills.”
