About Us

The PUBLIC School of Technology, delivered by PUBLIC, is a leading provider of innovation and technology learning programmes with a commitment to empower future-ready public services. Put simply, we’ve used our extensive experience in policy, digital transformation and emerging technologies to create learning experiences that makes innovation work for you.

Our Mission

"In a world where the pace of change is unprecedented, and pressing economic challenges abound, we believe there has never been a better or more important time for public servants to be upskilled to meet the moment. The current climate requires innovative thinking in policy making and policy delivery contexts. This is where we come in.

From day one, our mission that every public servant is robustly equipped, and that innovation practices can thrive across central and local governments, and the wider public sector. We strive to ensure public servants are robustly equipped with the right skills and experience to design and deliver better services for citizens."
