Being a Good Councillor

Being a Good Councillor

Council Training

Claire and I attended the 4 online training modules provided by DALC earlier this year. The subjects covered in the sessions were as follows

1.  The roles and responsibilities of the council, councillors and the clerk.
2. The financial aspect of the council
3. How meetings should be run, record keeping etc
4. Councils and the community.

I have provided some of the literature that was used as part of the training.

During the sessions we also got to hear how other councils of all sizes followed the procedures we were learning about.

This training was very useful as it covered aspects of how a council is run that I was not aware of.
