The SPA Learning Lab (previously SPA Center for Learning and Development between August 2020 and February 2025) is a training and capacity development facility run by Somali Public Agenda (SPA). Its aim is to connect the civil servants, policy makers and non-profit sector workers with communities and provide administrations with the technical skills necessary to formulate and implement solutions for public service challenges. The SPA Learning Lab was established in August 2020 to help public and non-profit sectors better deliver social services.
Quality public policies and services cannot be implemented without an administrative cadre that can deliver them. The SPA Learning Lab offers short training courses to contribute to the building of competent administrative cadres that can deliver public policies and programmes to the community.
Moreover, the SPA Learning Lab offers training to Somali professionals who have desire and passion to join the public sector as well as professionals engaged in the civil service and non-profit sectors.
Based on the types of skills required, the SPALearning Lab utilizes its pool of network members, experts and fellows to help develop tailored training modules and train public servants as well as civic institutions and youth with the necessary skills. Modules and syllabi for each of the professional training programmes are developed and delivered by experts.
The thematic areas for the professional training programmes are:
Deputy Director & SPA Learning Lab Director
Communications & Learning Coordinator
