The Civil Service Commission (CSC) launched its new microlearning courses on the CSC Learning Management System (LMS) during the 2024 Leaders & HR Symposium (LHRS) held at the Philippine International Convention Center and online.
CSC Chairperson Karlo Nograles, along with Commissioners Aileen Lourdes Lizada and Ryan Alvin Acosta, introduced the microlearning courses, a key addition to the CSC-LMS, which offers civil servants flexible, concise training accessible anytime and anywhere. This initiative supports continuous professional development for government employees.
The Civil Service Digital Exam (CSDEx), a digital mode of taking the civil service examinations that will complement the Pen-and-Paper Test mode.
The CSC also launched the Civil Service Digital Exam (CSDEx), a digital mode of taking the civil service examinations that will complement the Pen-and-Paper Test mode, and shall eventually replace the existing Computerized Examination (COMEX).
Developed in partnership with the University of the Philippines Open University, CSDEx is a cloud-based high-stake examination platform, which strictly adheres to the Philippine Government’s Cloud First Policy of the Department of Information and Communications Technology.
Themed “Adapt Beyond Limits,” the two-day symposium gathered over 3,000 participants and focused on leadership, human resource management, and organizational development.
The 2024 LHRS included plenary sessions featuring prominent leaders and experts who emphasized the need for adaptive leadership to address challenges such as digital transformation, talent retention, and organizational resilience.
Concurrent sessions, on the other hand, covered a wide range of topics, including emotional resilience, artificial intelligence and ethics, and inclusive leadership.
“The lessons we’ve learned should propel us forward to build more resilient, agile, and forward-thinking public institutions.”
In his closing remarks, Nograles expressed his appreciation to all the attendees, guests, speakers, and CSC’s partners and sponsors for their support, which guaranteed the success of the event. He also enjoined participants to take action on the learnings gained during the symposium.
“For two days, we navigated through insights and strategies, and we shared our experiences as public servants dedicated to leading with adaptability and resilience in our rapidly changing world. Adaptability is a journey, not a destination. The lessons we’ve learned should propel us forward to build more resilient, agile, and forward-thinking public institutions,” Nograles stressed.
Participants will receive certificates for 16 training hours and may enroll in a free microlearning session via the CSC-LMS until October 2, 2024.
