Iraq Civil Service Curriculum Development
Management Systems International (MSI)/USAID
The Academy has received a subcontract from MSI, Inc., to develop short courses and curriculum for the civil service in Iraq under funding from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Curriculum development under the Iraq project falls in two general areas, public management and IT management. The courses will be three to four days in length and cover such fields as financial management, leadership, IT management, human resources, communications, project management and the like. Courses are targeted to everyone from front line supervisors through senior management. Course development will take place in the United States, although there be some travel to Iraq for one or two weeks. The proposed Panel will oversee and guide this project.
