The Trusted Public Sector Training Provider
Enhancing Professional Development to Improve Public Services

Understanding ModernGov is the UK’s leading provider of public sector training, delivering tailored, impactful courses since 2006. We’ve trained over 100,000 professionals across thousands of organisations and are a trusted government supplier (RM6145 and RM6124). Our training empowers delegates with relevant skills, confidence, and valuable networking opportunities — earning us exceptional feedback and frequent referrals.

What to Expect from a Training Course?

Our courses are highly interactive, using breakout rooms, group tasks, and live polls to keep you engaged. You’ll build confidence, gain new insights, and develop skills tailored to your personal and professional needs.

Our Experience

We’ve delivered impactful, tailored training to thousands of organisations — from blue-chip companies to key government departments like the Cabinet Office, Home Office, DWP, Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Defence. Our experience spans the wider public sector, including NHS Trusts, universities, local councils, fire services and police forces. We’re committed to helping professionals build confidence, develop skills and thrive in their roles.

Your Experience

Our training empowers you to develop the skills that matter most to you. Each CPD-certified course offers expert insights, real-world case studies, interactive Q&As, and valuable networking with peers. With limited delegate numbers, you’ll benefit from meaningful engagement with trainers and fellow participants. We’re an APMG-accredited provider and an approved government supplier under RM6145 and RM6124 frameworks.
