As part of our professional development mix, we are also pleased to announce that applications for much of the training funded by the Joint Career Development Program (JCDP) are now being accepted.

- A two-day intensive course on effective communications offered directly by the Comptrollership Training Centre that helps participants become stronger and more effective communicators.
- A three-day intensive course on using Microsoft Power BI to harness automation and create data visualizations as part of your reports and add value to your work in an increasingly automated world.
- Three regional interchanges, where a group of participants from the National Capital Region (NCR) spend a week in a region, meeting fellow members of the CT Community and learning more about life in the regions.
- Two NCR interchanges, where a group of participants from across the country spend a week in the NCR, meeting fellow members of the CT Community and learning about life in central agencies and departmental headquarters.
