Abstract

Modern conditions of public administration are formed in the BANI world ( Grabmeier, 2020 ), unstable, disturbing, uniquely technological and digital. How many of today's civil servants are capable of functioning in such a world through current training and professional development systems? This issue is particularly relevant for post-Soviet countries, as most of them belong to emerging economies that are still shaping their own unique public administration system. The article is aimed at studying the practice of professional development of civil servants within the framework of additional education in post-Soviet countries in the context of digitalisation. According to the study, it is clear that the Soviet model of supplementary education for civil servants is still valid, with minor differences in the countries studied. This model is characterised by a centralised organisation of training of civil servants within the framework of specially created structures (public service academies). With the transition to digital learning, countries are differentiated by the pace and level of transition to distance and e-learning for public servants.

数字化背景下后苏联国家公务员培训实践概览

现代公共行政的条件是在 BANI 世界（Grabmeier，2020 年）形成的，不稳定、令人不安、独特的技术和数字化。通过当前的培训和职业发展体系，当今有多少公务员能够在这样的世界中发挥作用？这个问题与后苏联国家尤为相关，因为这些国家大多属于新兴经济体，仍在形成自己独特的公共行政体系。本文旨在研究后苏联国家在数字化背景下额外教育框架内公务员职业发展的实践。研究表明，苏联的公务员补充教育模式仍然有效，只是在所研究的国家中略有不同。这种模式的特点是在专门设立的机构（公务员学院）框架内集中组织公务员培训。随着向数字化学习的过渡，各国公务员向远程和电子学习过渡的速度和水平也有所不同。

期刊介绍： Teaching Public Administration (TPA) is a peer-reviewed journal, published three times a year, which focuses on teaching and learning in public sector management and organisations. TPA is committed to publishing papers which promote critical thinking about the practice and process of teaching and learning as well as those which examine more theoretical and conceptual models of teaching and learning. It offers an international forum for the debate of a wide range of issues relating to how skills and knowledge are transmitted and acquired within public sector/not for profit organisations. The Editors welcome papers which draw upon multi-disciplinary ways of thinking and working and, in particular, we are interested in the following themes/issues: Learning from international practice and experience; Curriculum design and development across all levels from pre-degree to post graduate including professional development; Professional and Taught Doctoral Programmes; Reflective Practice and the role of the Reflective Practitioner; Co-production and co-construction of the curriculum; Developments within the ‘Public Administration’ discipline; Reviews of literature and policy statements.
