GOVERNMENT OF CANADA FELLOWS PROGRAM
From the Prime Minister's Web Site (061027)

Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced today the launch of the Government of Canada Fellows Program to allow the exchange of senior executives in the public service of Canada with other sectors such as business, academia, not-for-profit organizations and other levels of government.

The program will support renewal of the public service through the exchange of knowledge, skills, expertise and best practices between the Canadian public service and other sectors of Canadian society. These exchanges will be mutually beneficial in key areas such as improved service delivery, the use of technology and enhanced governance, accountability, and management practices.
