Training

We are changing the way we deliver training - aiming to deliver most courses at a venue to suit you.  See the list below for details 

Clerks Induction - A 2 hour 1:1 session in our offices covering all aspects of clerk's first year with sample documentation included: £40.00

Councillors Induction- A 2 hour 1:1 session on the basics of being a parish Councillor, at our offices.  This is less intensive than the Clerk's version so the cost is £20.00. 

Introduction to Cilca - A 2 hour 1:1 session in our offices outlining the requirements for the CiLCA portfolio: £20.00

On Site Training - Our courses run for approximately 2 hours and cost either £10.00 per delegate (both Clerk and Councillors) or A £90 minimum fee if there are less than 9 delegates.  Most courses are based on the National Training Strategy but we will try to tailor modules to suit your needs and objectives

At present we have no courses planned in Stafford courses but any that are advertised will be at our usual cost:

£20.00 for first delegate

£15.00 for second delegate

£10.00 for all additional delegates.

Support materials are provided on a CD which can also be purchased for £10.00 if you are unable to attend the course, but one copy per Council is automatically included in the price.

Please contact our training administrator, Richard Ellison, on 01785 277499 for further details of how these courses can be booked.
