What is being bought
Published requirement descriptiona. The Executive Master of Public Policy (EMPP) is designed to equip Civil Servants with the cutting-edge analytical skills required to deliver effective policy in an increasingly complex and interdependent world. The course is a unique partnership between the Civil Service and the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).
b. The EMPP is a part-time degree for working policy professionals, with eight modules to be completed over 21 months. The programme is aimed at accomplished professionals seeking to reach the very highest levels of the Policy Profession, building careers that will see them working on the biggest issues in public policy. They will become experienced in applying the best, most modern and most appropriate approaches to policy development.
c. Undertaking the EMPP requires a high level of commitment from the students coupled with support from their organisations (financial, time off and opportunity for practical application). This document seeks to provide a consistent steer for all participants and organisations.
