SAMDI’S overarching objective: Responsiveness to Government’s strategic priorities
G & A priorities for 2005
♦ Capacity of the State
♦ Unified system of public administration
♦ Government systems
♦ Integrated service delivery
♦ Batho Pele and participatory governance
♦ Intergovernmental Relations
♦ Improving local government performance
G & A cluster: keys issues for SAMDI
♦ Capacity of State requires improvement of management
♦ HRM competencies defined during current research at DPSA
should be developed through a compulsory certificate in HRM
♦ Developmental ethos for the public service and work ethic
required as cross-cutting issues in training programmes
♦ IMDP as a comprehensive management development
programme to be extended to cover management training and
development up to the level of Directors-General as well as
first line supervisors at lower levels
G & A cluster: keys issues for SAMDI (2)

♦ Line managers face challenges in articulating exactly what skills are required to deliver on the objectives of the department or province
♦ Poor quality and relevance of training programmes, including curriculum design, assessment strategies and training methodologies
♦ Lack of effective focus on the development of norms, values, attitudes and orientation of public officials
♦ Shortage of comprehensive and credible data on the quantity and quality of training conducted
♦ Alarming escalation of training costs when compared with value gained

Business model
♦ SAMDI’s business model is defined by a strategic plan submitted to Parliament in response to the planning framework
♦ SAMDI implements the strategic plan through operational plans and monthly reporting
♦ Cost recovery and how we deliver training and development interventions through our own instructional design to ensure implementation and practical relevance of learning is part of the strategy
♦ Internal capacity is multiplied through strategic partnerships – independent contractors; service providers appointed through tenders; or seconded public servants of to deliver on the demand for training
Strategic framework
♦ In response to the challenges facing HRD in the public sector,
SAMDI is responding through a concerted focus on:
Skills development institutions
HRM & D capacity in the public sector
Improving partnerships and linkages with training providers
Improving the impact of training
Improving the cost-effectiveness and quality of spending on
training in the public sector
Strategic priorities: client perspective
We will design and deliver high quality and relevant skills development solutions to all three spheres of government, which improve the capacity of the public service to deliver on Government’s strategic priorities.
Strategic Priorities:♦ Manage the roll-out of the compulsory induction and re-orientation
programme, so that all new public servants are effectively inducted into the public service, and all public servants are effectively re-oriented to the new challenges and approaches in the public service.
♦ Develop and utilise an approach to conducting training needs analyses within the public service, which clearly identifies training needs against organisational objectives
Strategic priorities: client perspective (2)
♦ Deliver supply chain management training programmes and consulting services so that public servants have the skills necessary to implement the new supply chain management procedures
♦ Deliver project management and financial management training programmes which enable public servants to effectively and efficiently manage the implementation of projects, and properly manage and control finances
♦ Deliver management and leadership development programmes which enable the development of a fully capacitated management and leadership component within the public service
♦ Deliver change management and service delivery innovation training programmes to ensure that public servants have the skills necessary to meet the implementation requirements of Batho Pele
♦ Deliver human resource management and development training programmes so that the public service has the human resource capacity required to deliver on the Government’s strategic priorities
♦ Deliver programmes that mainstream issues of gender, disability and HIV and AIDS, so that these strategic priorities of Government are continuously addressed
Strategic priorities: internal business processes
We will continuously strengthen the institutional capacity of SAMDI to enable us to effectively, efficiently and economically operationalise our strategic plan.
Strategic Priorities:
♦ Develop and manage strategic partnerships with other institutions, both locally and internationally, so that SAMDI is able to maximise opportunities for the delivery of best practice training and development interventions
♦ Develop and implement an international relations strategy so that SAMDI both contributes to and benefits from international approaches to public service training and development
♦ Develop and implement marketing and communication strategies that effectively project SAMDI to current and potential clients, both locally and internationally
Strategic priorities: internal business processes (2)
♦ Develop and implement human resource management systems and procedures that result in a diverse and well managed Department
♦ Develop and implement an effective information strategy and information technology infrastructure that supports the achievement of our objectives
♦ Provide legal and contract management support to ensure compliance with legislative prescripts and practices
♦ Develop and implement effective monitoring and evaluation processes over all of our products and services, so that we are able to measure the impact, effectiveness and quality of our work
♦ Develop and implement a quality management system as a central component to all business processes within SAMDI
Strategic priorities: learning and growth (people)
We will ensure and encourage the continual learning and development of the organisation, in a manner which contributes to the development of a positive culture in which individuals are highly motivated and productive
Strategic Priorities:♦ Develop an integrated talent management function for
SAMDI that will ensure continual learning, development and improved performance.
♦ Support the development of research and knowledge management processes to ensure the development of a learning organisation and an approach to lifelong learning in SAMDI.
Strategic priorities: financial
We will ensure that SAMDI is sustainable and is able to operate in a cost effective manner in line with sound financial management principles.
Strategic Priorities:♦ Provide professional financial support services that are fully
compliant with the legislative framework and Government’s requirements
♦ Establish and maintain a procurement and provisioning system that is fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost effective
♦ Provide internal audit support based on accurate risk assessment and analysis
♦ Develop and implement a comprehensive donor relations management strategy so that opportunities for utilising donor funding are maximised and the relationship between SAMDI and the donor agencies is strengthened
Overview of high priority strategic projects over the medium term
Note: Some of these projects are still under discussion with the Minister
Local Government Capacity Development
♦ Formulation of a joint capacity development strategy with dplg as
a sub-set of the public sector HRD strategy
♦ Two broad categories:
training needs related to generic and specific technical
competencies
specific programmes linked to Project Consolidate
Accelerated programme for the development of basic skills
♦ Public Service largest employer with large number of
employees at low skills level
♦ Embark on extensive ABET programme to ensure basic
literacy throughout the public sector
♦ Strong focus on training and impact of training on world of
work
♦ Capacitation at this level will contribute to the improvement of
government capacity and productivity, and will also impact on
social inclusion
Key offerings within current programme
♦ Compulsory induction and re-orientation programme
Acquisition of competencies that will enable all civil servants to
initiate and implement the programme and processes which lead
to the achievement of the State’s objectives
♦ Management and leadership programmes
Comprehensive PSLDP (SMS - all)
Executive PSLDP (SMS - levels 15 and 16)
Senior Executive Programme (SMS – levels 15 and 16)
A new model for training and development
♦ Attempting to link learning directly to performance improvement♦ Focus on building the human resources capacity of the State –
looking at how the skills and capability of human resources are affected by and affect capacity constraints within both the organisation and the environment
♦ In other words, if we take it as a reality that the public service will always be faced with an escalating demand for services, and that the resources required to meet this demand will always be limited, then we need to understand who must receive training, who should deliver training, and what and how public servants should learn, in order to optimise performance in this type of environment
A new model for training and development (2)
♦ Who delivers the training? SAMDI will co-ordinate the establishment of a network of
associates, drawn from the ranks of public officials, including elected officials. These officials will have a demonstrable record of successful service delivery in their area of work.
They will be supported in the classroom by learning facilitators, and will be encouraged to share best practices, examples and methods of good decision making and innovations, and their overall experiences
♦ And who is trained? Line managers need to be able to clearly identify ‘who needs
training in what’ in order to improve service delivery – this requires proper analysis of the real cause of the experienced problem, and a clear understanding of each person’s role in the value chain of delivery
A new model for training and development (3)
♦ What is trained?
This goes to the ‘content’ of the training material – the link
between learning outcomes and workplace requirements for
improved performance
SAMDI will be developing learning (or competency) frameworks in
specific and transversal functional areas, with associated
‘platform’ qualifications and skills programmes which directly
relate to skills required for organisational improvement
This will enable learners, and their managers to select learning
pathways that are most appropriate to their context, interest and
desired career paths
A new model for training and development (4)
♦ How do we deliver training that is both impactful and cost-effective? This section of the model looks at the context within which training
takes place, and the ‘blend’ in methodologies which best suit the content of the programmes and our target audience.
We will be focusing on integrating on- and off-the-job learning, and on integrating learning and organisational change
We will be developing a comprehensive mentoring programme, and working directly with managers to build their receptiveness to learning
Our e-Learning strategy forms a critical component of this, as does our new, standardised methodology.
Improving long-term supply of technically competent and committed public servants
♦ Shortcomings of compulsory examination model♦ Dedicated programme, coupled with strong experiential
component – e.g. France and India♦ Recruit on competitive basis fixed number (starting with 30,
growing to 60) candidates who have completed basic degree♦ 2-year professional diploma♦ Well structured experiential learning – placements in accredited
departments with accredited tutors/supervisors♦ Guaranteed employment with condition of deployment at
state’s discretion♦ Immediately included in Sustainable Pools programme♦ Highest recognition – cadreship consciousness
Improving long-term supply of new recruits into the junior ranks of the public service
♦ Presently face very specific supply problems♦ Dedicated FET college♦ Curriculum focused on working in the public sector, with
emphasis on technical skills as well as values and orientations
♦ Recruitment consistent with Equity targets – race, gender, class and geographic location
♦ Full costs carried by state♦ Strong experiential component♦ All successful candidates guaranteed employment in public
sector♦ All enter Sustainable Pools programme immediately on joining
public sector full-time
