Overview
Off the shelf (OTS)
In this course, we introduce and apply the concepts and tools of economics. We take participants through the main economic principles that support policy-making and broader government activity. We introduce examples from across government and give those taking part the opportunity to reflect on their experience and to consider the economics of their own policy areas. The course is set in the current context, using the latest data and referencing recent policy.
