Effective people management is a critical skill in ensuring a high-performing workforce that embodies public sector values and provides good governance and service to Canadians.

Topics include:

• understanding the role of organization and classification in HR management
• planning human resources and staffing responsibly
• recognizing responsibilities related to diversity, equity and inclusion
• managing labour relations issues
• respecting official languages rights and responsibilities

Notes:

This course is part of the Authority Delegation Training Program (ADT) that is mandatory for managers with delegated signing authority. Delegated managers must complete the following three ADT courses, ideally in this order:

• Authority Delegation Training: Using Public Funds Responsibly
• Authority Delegation Training: Practicing Responsible Procurement
• Authority Delegation Training: Managing People Effectively

These courses are also open to all public servants for professional development purposes. However, completing these courses and their assessments does not entitle these learners to exercise signing authority. Consult the Directive on Delegation of Spending and Financial Authorities for the specific responsibilities for delegating, maintaining and managing, and overseeing spending and financial authorities..
