11Annual Report 2017-2018 | Civil Service College
THE YEAR IN REVIEW
The Public Service has embarked on a transformation journey since 2013 with the aim of building “One Trusted Public Service with Citizens at the Centre”. In 2017, the key transformation priorities are building a well-coordinated, technology-enabled, bold and innovative Public Service that delivers today and is ready for the future.
As the public sector’s central learning and development institution, Civil Service College plays a vital role in supporting the transformation of the Public Service to be ready for the future. We do so by building capabilities in leadership, organisation development, governance, policy and public administration. We also strengthen public service values and foster collaboration among public agencies and officers.
BUILDING A CAPABLE AND COMMITTED PUBLIC SERVICE
In anticipation of the changes in the demand and mix of workforce capabilities in public agencies, CSC embarked on a journey to reframe our strategy and business model. Learning Redefined — Innovative, Inspiring, Impactful is the overall focus of CSC’s transformation.
Our aspiration is to provide experiences which support public officers’ upskilling and reskilling to deal with more complex and inter-disciplinary challenges, develop transformational leaders, and support organisation transformation.
TRANSFORMING TO INCREASE OUR IMPACT

CSC conducts public service-wide surveys to understand public agencies and public officers’ overall perception of CSC. The surveys provided us with insights of their capability building needs, and data on how well we were serving these needs. The FY2017 survey covered 90 agencies and 4,690 individual officers. There were improvements in the area
of providing relevant and impactful learning interventions in a timely manner, which helped public officers develop competencies to meet the demands of their work.

12Annual Report 2017-2018 | Civil Service College
STRATEGIC THRUST 1: DEVELOP PUBLIC SERVICE CAPABILITY
DEEPEN CAPABILITIES IN KEY DOMAIN AREAS
CSC continued to deepen the competencies of domains areas which are key to public sector transformation — policy development & regulation, service management, civilian enforcement, public communications & engagement, human resource & organisation development, public finance & procurement. By working with stakeholders, thought leaders and communities of practitioners, we identified emerging trends and best practices through research, and develop relevant learning interventions for public officers’ current and future roles.
In FY2017, key programmes and initiatives that enhanced the capabilities among domain specialists included:
• The 4th Behavioural Exchange International Conference that featured best practices in the policy application of behavioural insights, organised jointly with the UK Behavioural Insights team, New South Wales government and Harvard University
• A suite of data-driven public communications programmes to strengthen officers’ understanding and use of data in planning communications strategies and marketing campaigns
• Strengthening citizen-centric service through developing service leadership, strategy, and organisational capabilities through a suite of service management milestone and key capabilities programmes e.g. Leaders in Service Management Programme, Regional Operations Manager Programme, and CSC-SMU Executive Programme in Service Management.

International Conference, June 2017
DEVELOP CAPABILITIES NEEDED ACROSS THE PUBLIC SERVICE
As part of our environment scan, CSC identified digital capabilities, understanding Singapore’s external environment and whole-of-government collaboration as key capabilities that will be emphasised over the next few years. Highlights of our efforts to strengthen these capabilities include:
Digital Capabilities
• Developed a digital capabilities framework to guide the development of curriculum and programmes
• Introduced the Bytes! series to develop digital literacy in public officers and introduce them to the latest technology trends e.g. what is machine learning, understanding webapp development, how to build a chatbot etc.
• Developed new programmes for middle and senior management such as Managing Tech Disruption, Masterclass in Strategising Digital Services.

13Annual Report 2017-2018 | Civil Service College
Understanding External Environment
CSC continued to develop research, programmes and seminars to develop international perspectives. To increase the diversity of views, private sector experts were invited to share country-specific insights, such as Mr Lucas Loh, CEO of CapitaLand China and Mr Francis Chan, The Straits Times’ Indonesian bureau chief. On the international front, we continued to advance partnerships by sharing Singapore’s governance experience with our overseas counterparts. Through flagship programmes such as the Leaders in Governance Programme, public agencies had the opportunity to learn and exchange views with leaders from other public services.
Foster Public Service Collaboration
CSC continued to foster a culture of collaboration within the Public Service through the use of systems and design thinking tools in CSC’s milestone and key programmes. Officers from different sectors and agencies bring real cross-agency challenges to CSC-designed lab sessions that allow them to develop and test new ideas in a safe and collaborative environment. CSC also continued to facilitate communities of practice in the domains of service management, public engagement, human resource and organisation development.
In August 2017, participants of the 10th Leaders in Governance Programme visited CREATE, an international research campus and
innovation hub at the National University of Singapore.
STRENGTHEN PUBLIC SERVICE LEADERSHIP AND VALUES
Strong public sector leadership is key to building a first-class Public Service. We continued our investment in milestone programmes and interventions for leaders at all levels.
We also focused our efforts on middle managers who are critical in translating and implementing public sector imperatives. Highlights of key initiatives included:
• Teaming for Winning programme for officers assuming project team leadership roles without formal supervisory experience;
• Blended Electronic Middle Manager Aide Experience incorporating both Harvard’s Manage Mentor online learning content and CSC-facilitated small group action learning;
• ManagersFirst Learning App to experiment with a fully digital learning experience to support the new managers’ career transition.
STRENGTHEN PUBLIC SERVICE’S CHANGE CAPACITY
To drive public service innovation, besides training individual officers, change interventions need to be supported, contextualised and embedded at the team and organisation levels. CSC continued to support transformation through Organisation Development and performance improvement consultancy and advisory services e.g. conceptualising the Public Sector Transformation plans, change management plans for agencies, use of design thinking to improve user experience in public agencies.

STRATEGIC THRUST 2: INNOVATE AND DELIVER EFFECTIVE INTERVENTIONS
TECHNOLOGY-ENABLED AND INNOVATIVE LEARNING
To be more relevant and effective, CSC recognised the need to transform learning. In FY2017, we developed plans to triple our technology-enabled offerings in 3 years, and started plans to develop a whole-of-government digital learning platform to provide career-long learning support. To date, 21% of CSC’s programmes used technology and other innovative learning methods to enhance learning.
Five proof-of-concept projects in the area of digital learning were started in areas on public service induction, digital transformation, behavioural insights, data analytics and procurement. These projects enabled CSC to learn about the digital content development process, learners’ preferences and behaviours, and key functionalities to include in the design of the Digital Learning Platform.
STRENGTHEN EXISTING AND BUILD NEW PARTNERSHIPS
Developing and sustaining partnerships was a key priority for CSC to tap on external expertise. We partnered NTUC Learning Hub to offer 14 service management and foundational competencies programmes. We have also established organisational partnerships with Institutes of Higher Learning, digital learning content platforms, and other national schools of government.
We continue to work with thought leaders such as Rick Von Feldt (HR Futurist), Professor Ho Teck Hua (Senior Deputy President & Provost, NUS and CSC’s Fellow), Dr Catherine Fieschi (Executive Director of Counterpoint and CSC’s Visiting Fellow).

17Annual Report 2017-2018 | Civil Service College
OUR STRATEGIC FOCUS
DEVELOP AN AGILE, LEAN, DIGITAL AND CITIZEN-CENTRIC PUBLIC SERVICE
As the various sectors of Singapore’s economy are transforming, the Public Service has to transform to be more innovative, work smarter through technology and deliver better public services. In this next phase, the focus of Public Sector Transformation will shift towards transforming at the whole-of-government, agency and individual levels to build an agile, lean, digital and citizen-centric Public Service.
CSC’S TRANSFORMATION — LEARNING REDEFINED
To support these efforts, CSC will continue our Learning Redefined transformation journey. We will focus on inculcating learning as a value and mindset. This means that CSC’s products and services will increasingly be oriented towards developing capabilities and mindsets that support system-level change and organisation transformation.
Capability-building of individual public officers are planned in the context of their roles and required competencies, so that there is alignment and greater impact. CSC will move beyond episodic classroom programmes to support public officers throughout their career life-cycles with on-going learning, reskilling and development.
Develop Emerging Capabilities
In support of service-wide transformation, we need to build capabilities in four key emerging areas — digital literacy and transformation, innovation and enterprise, transformational leadership and inculcating a ‘growth’ mindset in public officers.
In FY2018, some key programmes and initiatives in this area include:
A digital curriculum and a suite of learning interventions e.g. CSC-Accenture Masterclass on Exploring Disruptive Technologies and Digitalisation, CSC-NUS Digital Disruptions and Public Policy programme, Regulating in a Digital World, CSC-SUTD Artificial Intelligence for Public Service Officers programme, case studies on pushing innovation and digital transformation
Innovation and process improvement training programmes and consultancy using agile, lean and design thinking tools
360-feedback instruments for senior leaders and directors, and middle managers leadership competency framework

18Annual Report 2017-2018 | Civil Service College
Deepen Current Capabilities
CSC will continue to refresh and deepen the competencies of existing areas which are key to the effectiveness of the Public Service. Highlights of our plans include:
Increasing cross-domain and system-level programmes to foster collaboration across sectors and agenciesSensitising public officers to key political, economic and social developments in the regionReviewing public policy curriculum and introducing new intermediate programmesStrengthening citizen engagement, public communications, organisation design, strategic workforce planning and service management capabilities.
Support Organisation Transformation
To support transformation at the agency-level, CSC will partner the Public Service Division to support ministry families’ development of transformation plans, especially in their development of workforce, capability and organisation development plans. We will support agencies through CSC’s consultancy and advisory in the following areas:
Change management consultancy with key agenciesEmployee engagement advisory Performance improvement e.g. service design, process improvement Learning and development consultancy.
Support Career Life-Cycle, Ongoing Learning, Reskilling and Development
To support ongoing learning, reskilling and development of individual officers at different phases in their career life-cycle, CSC will offer a suite of baseline learning for every public officer through the whole-of-government Digital Learning Platform ([email protected]) that is currently under development.
The platform will offer both structured learning pathways and bite-sized learning to meet different learning needs. Beyond platform and content development, CSC is working with agencies to encourage more online learning.
In Conclusion
We believe that the priorities identified will enable CSC to support the next phase of our Public Sector Transformation journey. As CSC tests, learns and implements these plans over the next few years, public officers can look forward to more innovative, inspiring and impactful learning experiences that support their professional growth.
