Sector: Government and public sector

Public sector training and capability.

Award-winning programs for Commonwealth agencies since 2002.

Agencies are asked to deliver reform, new systems and better services under close scrutiny. We help public sector organisations build the capability to deliver consistently and lawfully.

What organisations are facing.

The pressures agency executives describe to us most often. Each one is a capability question before it is a training request.

  • Reform and new systemsNew legislation, policy and technology change what people do, often faster than training can keep up.
  • Integrity and accountabilityDecisions and processes are open to review, audit and public scrutiny, and must be explainable.
  • Consistent service deliveryServices need to be delivered to the same standard across teams, regions and channels.
  • Workforce capabilityAgencies need to know what capability they have, where the gaps are and what to invest in.

Recent work.

Programs we have delivered for Commonwealth agencies, each labelled by how we know the result.

A leadership pathway for a 24-hour operational workforce

For Australian Border Force, Wisdom Learning designed Readiness to Lead, which leads to the BSB40520 Certificate IV in Leadership and Management, and the Operational Leadership Program for experienced leaders. The pathway won LearnX Diamond 2023 and LearnX Platinum 2024.

A national platform rollout

Working with a technology delivery partner, Wisdom Learning led the training workstream for a Commonwealth platform modernisation across a national, dispersed workforce. We ran the training needs analysis, built the Training Management Plan, produced training, facilitator and quick reference guides and digital learning, and delivered 14 train-the-trainer sessions, supporting more than 32,000 platform members across more than 450 units.

Questions public sector agencies ask us.

Short answers to the questions organisations ask us about this work. If yours is not here, ask us.

Do you work with Commonwealth, state and territory agencies?

Yes. We work with Australian Government agencies and with state and territory organisations, delivering anywhere in Australia.

Can programs be built around our agency’s policies and systems?

Yes. Programs are designed around your legislation, policies, systems and ways of working, so people practise the work they do.

Is this nationally recognised training?

Most programs are tailored capability development and are not nationally recognised training. Where formal recognition is needed, we can build in nationally recognised qualifications and units from our scope, delivered and assessed by Wisdom Learning, RTO 88062.

What does your workforce need to do differently?

Tell us about the capability you need to build and the environment it has to work in.

We respond to every enquiry within one business day.
