ChallengesChallenges

Public sector should have a flexible work environment responding to the needs of citizens, with civil servants capable to operate effectively with fewer resources. Sustainable development of the ability of the Institute to provide specialized services in public administration

Mining the wealth that lies within the human resources of Greek public sector

Investing in people Creating an effective and efficient

public administration with high ethical and professional standards of governance

Restoring the confidence of citizens in Greek public administration

10

The increasing of demand for training, because of the administrative reform, the mobility, the new conditions created. (Demand comes from both individuals and institutions of the public sector)

New environment, changes & administrative reform is the ideal environment for the implementation of the mission of EKDDA

Thinking other ways for the delivery of training programs.

11

EKDDA’s human capital .EKDDA’s scientific and administrative staff

possesses: High level of expertise in several scientific fields, Rich experience in designing, delivering &

Hellenic public sector.

12

EKDDA adapted in new conditions. So, in 2010 we:Closed 11 regional units of the Institute of Training INEP (There is only one Regional Institute of Training in Thessaloniki). INEP cooperates since 2011 with the Departments of Education (Decentralized Administrations of Thessaly, Western Greece & Ionian Islands, Peloponnese, Epirus, Crete). At the same time EKDDA incorporated the Training School of the Ministry of Finance. Closed down the National School of Local Government (established in 2004)

13

Introduction of the so-called “Innovative Workshops” (5 were held in 2011 and concerned five important public policies which should be promoted fast)

In parallel with the usual procedure, EKDDA signs Memoranda of Cooperation with important public entities or Ministries on a bilateral basis in order to be even more effective dealing with these organizations.

Develops e-learning training programs. Reduced its staff gradually.
