On this page, we’re pleased to share a post-program reading and resources list. This list includes resources recommended by our Faculty and the Office of the Public Service Commissioner to support your ongoing thinking and ethical practice.
We’d love participants to add to this, so it becomes a dynamic resource across the NSW public service. If you’d like to submit something for review, please email it to: comms.cranlana@monash.edu
