Internship, Equity & Employee Development Programs
The Manitoba Civil Service Commission offers a number of internship,
development and career assistance programs to both internal and
external employees. The objective of these programs is to provide
exposure and opportunities for development as we move toward the
renewal of the public service. The programs offered by, or in partnership
with, the Civil Service Commission look toward providing leadership
development and related opportunities for new and current employees,
furthering diversity in the workplace, and promoting a broad perspective
among participants through exposure to a variety of business areas
in government. These programs provide distinct training and development
opportunities related to the skills and abilities required in today's
public service, exposure to a variety of business areas in government,
networking opportunities and guidance on career development through
mentoring relationships.
Following is a brief outline of the various internship, development,
and career assistance programs with a link to further detail on
individual program components, their respective application and
recruitment processes, and contact information.
