Course Overview:

Globalisation of economic, legal, political, social, cultural and technological context has fuelled the need to modernise public services. With the increasing demands of citizens for better quality and efficiency as well as increased convenience, modernisation is no longer an option but has become a necessity. If a country needs to remain competitive in the global market, then it cannot rely on traditional means.

The users of public services are increasingly becoming tech-savvy and need more convenience and efficiency in the usage of these services; hence, up-gradation and appropriate use of information technology is extremely necessary for the public sector to support its customers in the best way possible.

Modernisation of public services affects in many ways but mainly results in increased efficiency, increased simplicity, greater consistency in quality of service, better public fund management. Modernisation also helps increase interaction between the government and citizens and thus helps plan public sector reforms in line with the expectations of users.

Traditional approaches not only hamper a government’s progress to remain competitive in the global market but also impact the usage of public services by customers. e-Governance as a concept has gained momentum over recent years, and all governments have welcomed this change as the need of the hour.

Introducing the concept of e-Governance is synonymous with building an information society, which has two pillars in technological innovation and global networking. While technology is at the crux of modernisation, technological innovation and advancement alone will not lead to successful modernisation.

Unification and equalisation of legal norms and legislations, upskilling of public sector professionals, gaining economic independence and improving international connections are some of the contributors to modernising the public services. Modernisation requires reform at all stages, be it fundamental changes in the methods of work of the government, in behaviours and work ethic or value systems within the organisation. Decentralisation is also an important factor of modernisation in the public sector.

This ZOE training course will empower you with in-depth knowledge of the need for modernisation of the public services and the necessary steps to successfully introduce modernisation in the public sector.

Undertaking this Certificate in Public Service Management course will provide you with the necessary information, skill, capability and exposure to be able to play a pivotal role in the modernisation of the services offered by your organisation. It will also prepare you to undertake additional roles and responsibilities and keep pace with technological advancements in your organisation, thus paving way for a faster and better growth path for you.

This Certificate in Public Service Management course will cover e-Governance in detail, which is the need across any domain these days. This, in turn, will ensure that you are competing not just to work in your role within your organisation, but are competent enough to think and work across any domain in any of the sectors—public, mixed or private.
