The Victorian Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning has supported 40 places for council executives and senior management to attend the training program ‘Enhanced Local Government Service Delivery’ in rural Victoria.
More than half of the scholarship positions have been filled, but there is still time for council staff in rural Victoria to apply and attend the program with applications due by 20 October.
The 5-day program will be run in Warragul and Wedderburn in November 2015 and will help staff develop a systematic way to review council services and operations and identify potential financial and operational efficiencies through effective service delivery review processes.
More information is available on the UTS Centre for Local Government website.
