Launching round two of JCDP applications

Sep 8, 2021

ACFO-ACAF is launching a second round of applications to CT-FINs for the 2021-22 Joint Career Development Program (JCDP).

In case you missed the first round of applications, the JCDP is an annual $1M professional development fund jointly managed by ACFO-ACAF and the Office of the Comptroller General designated for CT-FINs under the 2016 collective agreement.

Due to the uncertainty around the safety of travel in winter 2022, in-person opportunities have been rescheduled to take place online, with cost savings opening up for additional training opportunities.

These opportunities include training from market-leading providers focused on relevant themes and skills for CT-FINs, including:

Language training;
Human skills, from difficult conversations to leadership skills;
CPA Canada Public Sector Conference passes;
Relating and responding to mental health;
The government financial cycle, from political platforms to public accounts;
And much more.

For a complete list of programs and instructions for how to apply, visit https://www.acfo-acaf.com/professional-development/jcdp/

The deadline to apply is September 20 at 11:59 pm ET. All applicants will then go into a random draw to assign training based on your stated preferences. While priority will be given to CT-FINs who have yet to receive training under the JCDP, program participants from this year or past years are still eligible to apply.
