Queen’s Public Executive Program provides a unique opportunity for Canadian public-sector managers to gather together and address the key domestic and external policy issues facing Canada.
As the pre-eminent executive development program for public-sector managers, it gives you a chance to meet with peers, share ideas, and to reflect on the challenges facing the public service in today’s rapidly changing global environment. The Program will strengthen your knowledge and insight into the issues, and your strategic thinking skills, to help you meet the challenges.
The Program is also an excellent forum for networking and professional development. No other program in Canada provides the same kind of exciting and intensive opportunity to interact with public-sector managers from a wide variety of jurisdictions across Canada.
The Program focuses on Canadian public policy challenges, policy management, policy instruments, and policy performance, as well as the use and implementation of modern management tools in today’s public sector.
Real-life and real-time issue profiles are assessed and analyzed, while analytical frameworks facilitate an integrated analysis and systems approach to key policy issues.
