Introduction

The Learning Framework Toolkit for the Professional Development and Certification Program provides the tools you need for your learning journey as a specialist in the Procurement, Materiel Management and Real Property community. It is an important element of the federal government’s key human resources renewal initiative in support of the HR modernization and the Policy on learning, training and development. It also supports the TBS management priorities and commitments .as the community transitions from a transaction-based process to a more knowledge-based, strategic profession.

The purpose of the Learning Framework is to guide Procurement, Materiel Management and Real Property community members and their managers in identifying an employee’s learning needs in the context of the Professional Development and Certification Program. The framework is intended for everyone who spends time involved in the life-cycle managements of assets—those involved in all aspects of asset management, from assessing and planning of requirements; acquisition; operations, use and maintenance; to disposal.

For the first time, a comprehensive learning framework for a Professional Development and Certification Program will support the community. It defines the core competencies that are common to all members of this diverse community and offers a competency assessment tool and appropriate learning opportunities and professional designation in Procurement and Material Management through a program curriculum.

The Learning Framework

  • Core Competency Profile and Web-Based Assessment Tool - to define your learning needs
  • Standardized Program Curriculum - to build your knowledge and skills
  • Certification - to give you the recognition you deserve

The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat Professional Development and Certification Program Management Office developed this Learning Toolkit in consultation with the following stakeholders:

  • Professional Development Advisory Committee (PDAC)
  • Continuous Learning Working Group (CLWG)
  • Departments, Common Service Providers and Agencies
  • Bargaining Agents (PIPSC)
  • Delivery Agents (Canada School of Public Service and PWGSC)

Like workplace learning, which is a dynamic and evolutionary process, the Learning Toolkit is a "work in progress" and will evolve as the key program elements are developed and validated.
