Your community

There are communities of practice for people working in similar roles across Defence.

Why join a community

Joining a community helps you:

  • learn from what other projects are doing
  • be confident that you are meeting service standards
  • use common approaches and shared tools

Join communities in Defence

Anyone working in Defence can join a community.

You can join more than one community.

Become a service assessor

Some services have assessments to help them meet the GOV.UK Service Standard. Service assessors are from communities across Defence.

Training to be a service assessor will help you:

  • understand the service standards
  • learn from what other services are doing
  • create great digital services

You’ll also join the assessor community across government.

Who can get training

You need to be a crown servant in Defence who has worked on a digital service for at least 6 months.

This includes anyone who has just joined Defence but has digital experience in another government department.

If you meet these criteria, send your details to assessments@digital.mod.uk.

We would like to hear from trained assessors across Defence. You can join the panel for internal service assessments.
