With the publication on the website of the National Institute of Public Administration (INAP) of the curriculum of the 15 members of the Permanent Selection Commission, a further step is taken in the modernization of the General Administration of the State.

The Permanent Selection Commission, composed of a president, a secretary and thirteen members, is the collegiate body in charge of the implementation of the selective processes of the AGE: State Civil Administration Management Body, Systems Management and Computing of the State Administration, Autonomous Bodies Management Scale, General Administration of the State Assistant General of the State Administration.

Among the competences of the Standing Selection Committee are the following: to carry out the selective processes of each call, to set the criteria for action that must govern the selective processes, to qualify the exercises of the selective tests, to prepare the final report after the performance of the selective tests and to evaluate the results and to inform the INAP director of the development of the tests and to propose, as well as the Public Service, the selective processes to improve the development.

On May 26, the Minister of Territorial Policy and Civil Service, Miquel Iceta, presented the strategic guidelines for updating and modernizing the selective processes in the AGE, a reform that will culminate in the Public Employment Offer of 2025, although the improvements will be introduced gradually, as was already the case with the call of 10,254 places in the AGE on May 28, which included tests as a new practice.

The considerations are the result of months of debate to prepare for the 21st Century Administration and to address the challenges of AGE: ageing of the workforce, ignorance of the role of the Administration as an employer, mismatch between the educational system and selective processes and the digital revolution.

The guidelines for change are structured into five pillars: selection planning, opposition, selective course, equality and diversity and selection bodies.

The selection bodies, therefore, constitute one of the pillars of the changes in the selective processes, collecting the guidelines a strategy and criteria to deepen their professionalization. The publication of the curriculum of the members of the Standing Selection Commission constitutes a further step in the modernization of the General Government of the State (AGE), by making public their names, their academic degrees, their most relevant professional training, their current destiny and their professional experience.
