<p>It has never been more important for civil servants to understand devolution. As
we leave the EU a whole range of powers will return from Brussels and the Civil Service
must be ready to understand how those powers interact with the devolution settlements.</p><p>My
department champions devolution capability right across the Civil Service through
the flagship Devolution and You programme. Our learning and development offer is extensive,
ranging from online training to immersive workshops, work shadowing and written guidance.
Departments and devolved administrations also create tailored devolution training
on their specific policy areas and priorities.</p><p>We are constantly reviewing Devolution
and You to develop additional training. For example, we are working right now on enhancing
our work shadowing and interchange scheme so more civil servants can spend time directly
working in different administrations and different parts of the UK.</p>
