08th May 2017 Tonga’s Public Service Commission will soon receive assistance from The University of the South Pacific’s (USP) Pacific Island Centre for Public Administration (PICPA) towards effective implementation of the Performance Management System (PMS) in the public service.

In a press statement from USP, Director of The University of the South Pacific’s Pacific Island Centre for Public Administration (PICPA) Dr Parmesh Chand said “capacity building initiatives in public service will generate better impact and results if they are properly linked and sequenced.”

Chand stated that PICPA is now engaging under the bilateral programme of Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) with the Tongan Government.

“There has been ongoing assistance provided by the Government of Australia in collaboration with other development partners such as the World Bank to improve the capabilities of the Public Service Commission in Tonga to effectively implement the PMS, thereby improving performance standards of public servants and ultimately public service delivery.”

The assistance involves a series of workshops which will be conducted by specialized consultants for selected participants from the public service between early May and June where they will learn about writing job descriptions, conducting effective job interviews and providing monitoring and counseling to improve performance in the workplace.
