Public Sector Transformation

Training the digital public sector of tomorrow. Showing a way forward to the world.

Australia's Leading Public Sector Transformation Academy

The Digital Transformation Academy aims to establish the pathway toward standards-based public sector transformation flowing from the use of digital technologies; to innovate professional development and training programs; to originate scholarship in the field; to disseminate advanced methods and exemplary cases and to further explore and exploit the benefits of a recognised approach to public sector transformation management. The DTA strategy is professional development programmes for public sector digital leaders supported by academic research. The academy focuses on digital executives, managers, guides and agents. Facilitating the Government Business Transformation Management Methodology (GBTM2 – the leading framework of disciplines, scenarios of practice, guidelines, tools and show cases from participating European and Australian schools) the academy empowers participants to succeed with the challenges of digital transformation in a public sector environment.

DTA training is evolved to teach public sector digital professionals how to manage transformation, using the eight integrated disciplines of GBTM2, and to facilitate One™ Transformation across portfolio responsibilities through One™ Language implementing One™ Framework. The common objective of DTA training activities is to introduce digital leaders to all the factors driving successful transformation, including policy orientation and delivery governance. Participating public sector executives and managers are trained to link those approaches in integrated delivery frameworks, assuring the value, control and accountability sought by Australian governments and constituencies.
