OFFICE
MEMORANDUM
Subject: To start in-house Weekly Training
in all Ministries/Departments
In this era of rapid
transformation and heightened expectation of prompt and effective public
service delivery, Government has initiated a number of reform strategies/steps
aiming at improving the Knowledge, Skill and Attitude (KSA) of its employees
thereby empowering them to function in citizen-centric manner. The
effectiveness with which the new policies are implemented will largely be
dependent on the quality of civil service administration and the ability of its
members to operate effectively in the changed environment. This requires a
continuous focus on training of employees, who are our most important asset. An
important part of valuing and managing them effectively is to ensure that they
have access to relevant, high quality, accessible and on-going training.
2. At present, the senior civil
servants are exposed to a number of training programmes at different stages such as
induction training, mandatory mid-career training, in-service training etc. These trainings are mostly
organised service wise and within services at same level. Perhaps there is no training being
imparted at Ministry/Department level covering all its Group B and C employees
on same subject.
3. A need for starting in-house
training in each Ministry/Department was emphasised by the Hon’ble Prime
Minister during the presentation of the Ministry of Personnel, PG &
Pensions on 12.09.14. Such training session in each Ministry/Department should
ideally have 45 persons and should be for duration of one hour to be held on weekly basis. Subjects and master trainers
could also be identified in-house for this purpose.
4. The objective of an hour
in-house weekly training is to provide training to all
employees of the Ministry/Department on a regular basis without dislocating
their work. This being in-house training, there may not be any additional
financial burden as well. The Departments would be free to choose training
topics as per their requirements and utilise in-house expertise for imparting
training. This will also help in achieving the National Training Policy 2012
objective of training of all employees.
5. Following the directions of
the Hon’ble Prime Minister, the Department of Personnel & Training has
started in-house weekly training for its employees which was inaugurated by the
Additional Principal Secretary to PM on 9th October 2014. All officials from
LDC up to Under Secretaries will be nominated in batches of 45-50 and the
training will be conducted every Wednesday from 10.00 am to 11.00 am. You or your representative can attend this training after
giving prior intimation, so that your Ministry/Department is familiarised to
start in-house training.
6. Accordingly, all
Ministries/Department are requested to start hourly in-house weekly training
for their employees up to Under Secretaries immediately. In case the
Ministries/Departments require training module on a particular subject to be
developed/ procured, they may either contact the Institute of Secretariat
Training & Management (ISTM), New Delhi or get it sourced through their own training institutes.
The tentative learning schedule of DOPT is enclosed. If any assistance in this
regard is required, kindly let DOPT know.
7. It is also requested that
action taken may be informed to this Department for apprising the PMO.
