The APS Academy is seeking agency expressions of interest in whole-of-APS graduate development opportunities for your 2025 intakes.
These opportunities provide a range of options tailored to meet your agency or department’s needs, whether you are looking for options to fully meet your graduate development needs or simply want to supplement your existing development programs.
You can choose between full participation in the APS Graduate Development Program or selecting events or coaching only packages.
Options include:
- APS Graduate Development Program: Commencing in March 2025, the 10-month program includes 10 learning sprints, access to the full suite of whole of APS Graduate events and individual coaching sessions.
- Whole of APS Graduate Event Series: Commencing in March 2025, the series brings Graduates together for interactive and informative workshops. Agencies can select virtual or in person participation, or both.
- Coaching: Usually reserved for senior executives, coaching packages are a unique and valuable option for providing extra support throughout the Graduate year.
If you’re interested in the above, please email the Academy’s Graduate Development team at apscgdp@apsc.gov.au with your preferred participation option or to find out more. You can also visit the APS Academy website for more information.

The Australian War Memorial is interested to hear what other agencies are implementing or considering to comply with the Common Clause in Enterprise Agreements for First Nations competency training for all EL2 employees. The Memorial has some existing regular face-to-face Cultural Appreciation Training, but we are not sure if this will satisfy the new EL2 requirement.
Many thanks
