IPAM at Civil Service College organises many courses for staff at all levels.
 
To forge a common ethos across ministries/statutory boards and to build a clear understanding of WOG (whole-of-government) outcomes, the Institute of Public Administration and Management (IPAM) recently launched the L.E.A.D. Career Milestone Programme.

The objectives of the L.E.A.D. programme support central ministries’ agenda of creating a common Public Service ethos and values. They also complement agency-centric training programmes to achieve WOG strategic outcomes.

The curriculum has also been aligned to the new competency model developed by the Public Service Division (PSD) with Mercer Consulting to drive the desired outcomes for the Public Service.

PSD issued a revised Training Circular in January 2006 to make two of the L.E.A.D. programmes mandatory for ministries. They are Manager L.E.A.D. and Strategic L.E.A.D.

Inagural Strategic L.E.A.D. Programme
The inaugural Strategic L.E.A.D. programme was held from 3 to 9 May 2006. Feedback from participants was very positive.

Most found the segments useful and gained insights on public sector governance and a wider perspective of the Public Service. Lectures included a discourse on globalisation by Professor Mukul Asher from the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, a talk on best human resource practices by Four Seasons, and the sharing of learning journeys by Tsao Foundation, Internal Security Department Heritage Centre and Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau. A teambuilding segment also saw participants having fun with games.
