Collaborative Transformation (Taught)

Canterbury Christ Church University, in partnership with Shared Service Architecture, has established the UKâ??s first postgraduate qualification for developing Public Purpose Collaborations. For example, Combined Authorities, City Regions, Health & Social Care, Blue Light Collaborations, Systems­Wide Transformations and back­office, or front­office, Shared Services. This course provides you with the knowledge and skills to initiate and develop public purpose collaborations and shared service projects, whilst also giving you a valuable postgraduate qualification. You will become a skilled and valuable in-house resource, able to cascade your learned skills across colleagues in collaboration activities and reduce or negate the necessity to pay for external consultancy on projects. WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR? Public sector managers and consultants who wish to study the effective development of collaborations and shared service initiatives in the public sector and gain a qualification. WHAT IS THE BENEFIT FOR MY ORGANISATION? Value for money by potentially saving thousands of pounds by building in-house capacity and thereby minimising external consultancy fees. These savings can be gained by applying a range of the 100 tools, techniques and templates, provided to each graduate, to create in-house reports, assessments, risk registers, stakeholder group analyses and action plans, and business case reports. Traditionally these are undertaken by external consultants at standard fees of between Â?750 and Â?1,000 per day. By developing and using in-house managers this could realise many thousands of pounds in tangible savings for shared service partnerships.
