Summary:

The Digital Standards Playbook is being updated based on your feedback. We want you to check it out and share your thoughts and suggestions so we can iterate and improve frequently.

About the digital standards

The digital standards are a set of 10 principles that help the Government of Canada build user-centric services for people, businesses and communities. They guide teams through designing digital services in a way that best serves Canadians.

The Digital Standards Playbook was developed to expand on the principles to guide and empower public servants towards what good services look like. The playbook also provides practical guidance and tools to deliver services that are easy-to-use, inclusive, effective and secure.

Help improve the playbook

We've listened and are updating the standards based on your feedback. You can find the updated guidance on the Digital Standards Playbook with a "new version" label. New guidance is being released regularly so be sure to check back often. The new guidance now includes a survey where you can share your ideas on how we can improve.

You can also share your thoughts and suggestions by email at servicedigital-servicesnumerique@tbs-sct.gc.ca.

The playbook will continue to evolve to better meet your needs. Expect to see updates here as we refine the content.
