Gov’t employees encouraged to take advantage of CSC’s online learning programs


Civil Service Commission (CSC) Chairperson Karlo Nograles urged public servants to improve their knowledge by enrolling in competency-based learning and development (L&D) courses available online through the CSC Learning Management System (LMS).

The LMS is an online platform developed by the Civil Service Institute (CSI) that provides a one-stop shop for civil servants looking to improve their leadership and human resource (HR) management skills.

In addition to blended programs, the LMS provides eLearning Courses, a self-directed learning method that lets users access online materials and study at their own speed without an instructor’s help at any time or location.

“The LMS is not just a product of the CSC’s commitment to utilize digital resources to improve public service delivery, para rin po ito sa ating mga kawani na naghahanap ng mga training upang mapa-unlad ang kanilang mga sarili (it’s also for our staff who are looking for trainings to develop themselves). By offering online courses, our government employees can continue learning wherever and whenever they want to,” Nograles said.

Government officials and employees may enroll in the free “Public Service Values Program: Bawat Kawani Lingkod Bayani” course by Jan. 31.

The self-paced eLearning Course is designed to help participants understand, apply, and advocate for the fundamental values of patriotism, integrity, excellence, and spirituality in the context of public service delivery.

Meanwhile, the Supervisor’s Guide to Performance Coaching, a free e-Learning Course available until Jan. 31, is intended for aspiring supervisors and/or HR management practitioners seeking L&D intervention on the fundamental concepts of performance coaching.

On Feb. 9, a free Orientation on Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth (SALN) will be provided for those interested.

The session is designed to inform public officials and employees about the correct completion of the SALN form and other CSC issuances related to SALN, as mandated by Section 8 of Republic Act No. 6713, also known as the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees.

Meanwhile, the Workplace Wellness Workshop, scheduled for Feb. 16-20, will assist participants in developing a workplace wellness program that is responsive to their organization’s needs in order to create a healthy and productive workforce.

HR practitioners from national government agencies, local government units, government-owned and controlled corporations, and state universities and colleges may also enroll in the Learning Needs Analysis Course scheduled for March 13-15.

Through this training program, L&D practitioners will be provided with the tools to determine the learning needs in their respective agencies and assess if such necessities have been effectively addressed by applying the concepts, processes, and practices of learning needs analysis.

Public servants are also invited to join the free “Kwentong Lingkod Bayani” episode on March 15, which will serve as an avenue for individuals and organizations to share their insights and experience in applying the Public Service Values.

Meanwhile, the Gender, Diversity, and Social Inclusion Workshop on March 13 will explore the role of leaders in managing diversity and fostering inclusion by navigating gender-related differences in the workplace.

On March 19 to 20, the online Manager’s Role in Capacity Building Course designed for managers, division chiefs, supervisors, or equivalent positions will guide participants in drafting an Office Development Plan for their units and how they can be implemented effectively.

Interested individuals who wish to enroll need to create an account on the CSC-LMS platform.

Upon signing up, they will have access to their personal dashboard where they can view all course-related information and tools, including the training guidelines, modules, training hours, dates, and costs.

Participants who have completed the requirements for the abovementioned courses will receive an e-Certificate of Completion with the appropriate number of leadership and managerial training hours.
