COSOramverk

COSOramverk is a Swedish national framework for the organization of external studies and training for civil servants. It was introduced in 2018 and aims to facilitate the efficient use of external resources, improve the career development of civil servants, and enhance the quality of public services.

COSOramverk provides a standardized approach for defining and organizing external studies and training, ensuring consistency and transparency across different government agencies and levels. The framework establishes clear guidelines and requirements for the selection, approval, and evaluation of external training programs, as well as the management of related resources and expenditures.

The core components of COSOramverk include a set of standardized routines and procedures for external education and training, which cover key areas such as planning, implementation, and follow-up. The framework also emphasizes the importance of continuous evaluation and assessment, enabling agencies to monitor and improve the effectiveness of their external studies and training programs.

COSOramverk is intended to support the development of skills and knowledge among civil servants, enabling them to meet the demands of an evolving public sector. By providing a clear and structured approach to external studies and training, the framework aims to foster a culture of lifelong learning and professional growth within government agencies.
