20. Case Study Sustainable Pools Scheme - Purpose The sustainable pools scheme is a joint development initiative between SAMDI and DPSA Aims and Objectives: ♦Accelerate the development of high performing middle managers to increase the selection pool for SMS appointment ♦Enhance and support transformation in the public service ♦Increase the representation of women managers and those living with disabilities in the SMS substantially Programme Architecture: ♦Participants must successfully complete the Advanced Management Development Programme for access ♦Other components include: Action Learning; SMS competency test; Executive Development Programme; etc. ♦An international study tour (10 days) provides opportunities for situational learning in another context

21. Case Study Sustainable Pools Scheme - Results ♦77 participants on the programme from Western Cape, Mpumalanga and KwaZulu-Natal provinces ♦Participating Departments - Home Affairs, Trade and Industry, SAMDI, DPSA and OPSC ♦These participants will complete all modules of the EDP by the end of June 2008 ♦Based on performance about 30 of the current cohort will be admitted to the Pools ♦The evaluation report on the first ADP has been completed with a number of recommendations for improvement ♦25 current participants will be undertaking a study tour to India from 13-24 October 2008 ♦China has also offered to host and fund 12 participants in November 2008 ♦Executive Development Branch will review these offers and draft an implementation strategy

22. Case Study Sustainable Pools Scheme - Plan of Action ♦The current challenges on the programmes will be addressed e.g. costs, length and commitment of participants ♦The recommendations of the ADP evaluation report will be implemented by end of July 2008 ♦The new ADP requires completion of the AMDP, comprising 6 EDP modules; mentorship; seminars; and a study tour ♦The selection of the second cohort of 300 participants will be completed by end of March 2009 ♦Nominated participants will be selected from various national departments and all provinces ♦The first group of 20 participants for the new ADP will be nominated by the end of May 2008 ♦Co-funding opportunities will be explored with Treasury and donors

23. Implementing Academy Reconstitution Need for Paradigm Shift ♦R1 billion p/a spent in departments but 43% of staff in provincial departments reported no training in 2006 ♦International benchmarks suggest at least 5 days training per annum:  For approx. 250,000 middle and junior managers requires 1,25 million PTDs p.a.; and  Allowing for 60% of training already occurring in departments still requires 0,5 million PTDs p.a. ♦For induction, staff turn-over is 120 000 people p.a. requiring another 0,2 million PTDs ♦Thus, the total-demand driven requirement is 0,7 million PTDs, nearly 10 times SAMDI’s present output!

24. 24 Implementing Academy Reconstitution Vision and Activities Three “Mantras”: ♦Provision to facilitation ♦Competition to collaboration ♦Selective coverage to massification First Main Stream of Activity: ♦Executive development programmes for SMS ♦Entrant, lower and upper SMS: programmes, courses and events ♦In collaboration with universities and counterparts Second Main Stream of Activity: ♦Massified management training for junior and middle managers ♦Curriculum and Training Frameworks (functional and generic); monitoring and evaluation to regulate numerous outsource providers ♦The Induction Programme for new entrants at all levels
