About us
The training division of the Centre for Parliamentary Studies, providing excellence in public service education
Government Exchange is the training division of the Centre for Parliamentary Studies.
Based at the centre of Whitehall, and with strong links to Parliament and Government through our Advisory Board, we are acutely aware of the current challenges being faced in the civil service and wider public sector.
We provide training that equips you with the relevant skills and knowledge to respond to these in your workplace.
Our courses are particularly relevant for Civil Servants, Agency and Non Departmental Public Body staff, but are equally useful for those from the private, voluntary and wider public sectors involved in, or with an interest in any aspect of the work of Government.
Through regular consultation and conducting thorough training needs analyses, we ensure that our training is entirely relevant, up-to-date, and tailored to the needs of your organisation. Our training also covers the core Professional Skills for Government.
We fully understand current budgetary pressures and therefore ensure that our courses offer the best possible value for money. In order for you to guarantee the best possible return on investment, we have also developed a learning evaluation system that measures the increase in knowledge or skills that occurs, enabling you to accurately assess the impact of the training.

Feedback from our Participants
Feedback from civil servants and public sector professionals
"The full-day virtual session was conducted well. The class number was small enough to allow for engagement, activities and content was sufficient, and the comfort breaks were appropriately timed. the trainer was excellent as usual. His facilitation approach to the participants, vast knowledge and international experience is beneficial and enhances the training experience."
