Learning Connect

A space for learning and development professionals in government.

What is Learning Connect?

Learning Connect is a new space for learning and development professionals across government. If you are a learning and development professional, please join our mailing list for updates.

Our first initiative was a free online course which is still open for enrolment. Over 600 people have joined and the course has received great feedback. The course is interactive and includes sections on continuing professional development, accessibility, AI and digital platforms.

If you aren’t a learning and development professional but still have an interest in learning and development in government, please sign-up for Campus News instead.
