DSN Spotlights are short-form project profiles that feature exciting work happening across our network of digital government practitioners. Spotlights celebrate our members’ stories, lift up actionable takeaways for other practitioners, and put the examples we host in the Digital Government Hub in context.
Forms are a foundational tool of government to serve the public’s needs, with form design playing a critical role in how people access and experience government services.
In 2022, the Canadian Digital Service (CDS) kickstarted an effort to deliver high-quality forms by standardizing ministries’ form design and development process. This effort is named “Government of Canada (GC) Forms,” or “GC Forms.” GC Forms now offers public servants the ability to easily produce and publish secure, bilingual, and accessible digital forms.
