The National School of Government (previously known as the Civil Service College and the Centre for Management and Policy Studies, or CMPS)[2] is a part of the Cabinet Office that runs training, organisational development and consultancy courses for UK civil servants and private individual learners. It is based at Sunningdale Park, near Ascot in Berkshire, but has other centres in Edinburgh and London.
National School of Government also manages Sunningdale Institute – a virtual academy of leading thinkers on management, organisation and governance.
The National School of Government is to close on 31 March 2012. Its main functions are to be taken on by a new body, Civil Service Learning.
