Professional Certificate in
This professional certificate takes the innovative course series “Digital Transformation Playbook for X” and applies it to Government. But it doesn’t do so haphazardly. The Smith and Clark schools leverages the foundational courses in Digital Strategy and Execution and extend those with a simulated course experience for the Government sector.
Government sector leaders that are usually program managers, directors, or unit leads need to know how to sense and respond to digital technology. At its core, the basic lessons are the same. In practice, the complexity of bureaucracy and the need to consider internal marketing (politics) within each organization is also essential.
This course series will take its learners on a digital transformation journey where they build required skills to prove mastery. The last course in this series adds required lessons and simulates digital transformation in government based on real events and a real digital transformation. This allows government leaders to apply the skills and knowledge gained in the certificate by using micro-progressed case studies as scenarios to explore and solidify knowledge against the course objectives.
Course objectives include:
Identify critical technologies that have the potential for disruption across markets into your market, and how to respond to them.
