APS Companion is here! The APS Induction digital magazine

The APS Academy is pleased to announce the release of the APS Companion.  

APS Companion is designed to complement agency induction and was developed in partnership with APS agencies. The digital magazine draws on the concept of ‘continuous learning’ to provide essential information on what you need to know to work effectively in the APS.

Essentially, the APS Companion communicates:

  • who we are.
  • what we do.
  • how we work.
  • roles and responsibilities.

The APS Companion can be accessed when and where you need it, via phone, tablet or computer.

Set new starters up for success by introducing them to the APS Companion early, so they understand the APS environment to work effectively as a public servant, and confidently begin an exciting and fulfilling APS career.
