• Throughout the National Learning Week, every civil servant, or “Karmayogi,” will be required to engage in a minimum of four hours of learning focused on their specific roles and competencies.
• Participants will access role-specific training modules through the iGOT platform, and also attend webinars, public lectures, and policy masterclasses by renowned experts and policymakers.
• The initiative underscores the idea of "One Government," aiming to align all government employees toward shared national goals and to foster a culture of lifelong learning and upskilling.
• The ‘Karmayogi Saptah’ represents one of the largest national efforts to bolster civil service capabilities and improve citizen-centric service delivery through knowledge enhancement and skill development.
