Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government for what reason they do not keep a central register of training undertaken by civil servants across all government departments; and whether they will review this practice and policy.
Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Captain of the King's Bodyguard of the Yeomen of the Guard (HM Household) (Deputy Chief Whip, House of Lords)
The Government Skills Group, within the Cabinet Office, leads the civil service skills agenda and maintains data on learning and development activity delivered through its centrally managed contracts and systems.
There is no single central register for all training undertaken across all government departments. This is because of the technological barriers to aggregating learning and development data across departmental systems. Responsibility for maintaining records of local learning and development activity rests with individual government departments.
The Government Skills Group is committed to integrating learning and development data across the civil service in the future.
