Review of Scheme for Establishment of Community CouncilsTraining for Community Councillors
We are in the process of developing an online training platform to support Community Councils. This could be completed independently or as part of a group workshop if no online access is available.
Do you think this training relating to Scheme & Guidance should be mandatory for members to complete within an agreed timescale?
Please comment if you have any other training suggestions that you feel would support your personal development and role within the Community Council.
(see Scheme page 25)
We already have someone doing that supported by the Scottish Government called Improvement Services. Anyone interested enough can find everything they need online at present in order to be a good Community Councillor.
It is really important that Community Councillors have basic training and awareness as soon as they join. Simply handing out handbooks does not really suffice. Discussion of scenarios would be really beneficial.
