2.0 Changes in Mission/Focus
PDP’s mission and focus has remained consistent and is concentrated on best serving the interests and needs of those who work with, or in, the public sector. Its long-term, ongoing goal has been to advance extended learning and continuing professional education for the public service, particularly in NYS. Its documented success in improving workforce development for the public service has, in large measure, been due to remaining focused on its mission and core values, which have served PDP well for over 48 years.
