UNSSC

The United Nations System Staff College (UNSSC) stands at the forefront of the UN's commitment to building a more agile, capable, and future-ready workforce. Through learning, knowledge sharing, and capacity development, UNSSC empowers individuals and institutions to lead more effectively, deliver results more efficiently, and work collaboratively across mandates. Its core focus areas — leadership and management, change and transformation, sustainable development, and peace and security — reflect the priorities of the UN system and the Secretary-General.
The Knowledge Centre for Leadership and Management promotes a unified UN leadership culture aligned with the 2030 Agenda. It offers learning and capacity-building interventions, advisory services, mentoring and coaching, alongside bespoke 360-degree assessments and personality profiling to enhance leadership, change management and innovation.
The Knowledge Centre for Sustainable Development is dedicated to accelerating the implementation of the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change through innovative learning tools, interactive platforms and comprehensive educational programmes designed for the UN system and its partners.
The Peace and Security Hub enhances the UN's capability to work across pillars to prevent and mitigate conflict, build resilient societies and contribute meaningfully to sustainable peace, equipping UN personnel and partner organizations with essential skills ranging from conflict analysis to youth, women, peace and security.
The Hub for UN Transformation supports organizational renewal across the UN system, promoting learning, dialogue and experimentation to help UN personnel navigate complexity, foster innovation, and embed transformation into culture and practice.
The Academic Partnerships Unit connects UN personnel and partner organizations to learning opportunities offered by leading higher-education institutions from across the globe.
