Webinar: Inspired to Serve – Recommendations for the Future of Public Service – Apr 21,22,23

Posted by National Commission on Military National and Public Service on April 21, 2020

On March 25 the National Commission on Military, National, and Public Service released its final report, Inspired to Serve, and shared its recommendations to increase participation in service with Congress and the President. Now, ASPA and the Commission are hosting a webinar to discuss the recommendations. In addition to military and national service, the report proposes significant changes to federal civil service personnel systems, focused especially on attracting new generations of Americans and people with critical skills to public service. Next steps for this valuable research could include Congressional hearings, legislation to enact the recommendations, agency rulemakings and more.

On April 21, Chairman Joseph Heck will join a webinar co-hosted by the American Society for Public Administration (ASPA) and the Commission to discuss the Commission’s public service recommendations, including federal hiring, preferences, students and recent graduates, culture, critical skills, benefits. and transitioning to a modern talent management system. Joined by ASPA Executive Director Bill Shields as moderator, Chairman Heck will outline how the Commission’s recommendations are even more relevant amid the COVID-19 pandemic and answer any questions you might have.
