Has anyone got any tips about rolling Modern Councillor out to members?
We carried out a ’guided trial’ of Modern Councillor before we subscribed to it. This involved Members registering to attend one of many sessions. The sessions were approx one hour long and involved a maximum of 6 Members attending a session. The session provided a brief overview of Modern Councillor and then Members were shown how to access and login to the area and then left to navigate the site themselves with the presence of myself in the room to be on hand for those Members who were not that confident using IT.

Stewart Harris posted an update in the group e-learning content: 9 months, 2 weeks ago · View
We’ve had some interest expressed in e-learning on understanding local authority finance and budgets from a member perspective. Is this something that anyone else is looking at or wanting?
Hi Stewart – we are currently working with a company called LG Futures (who provide finance training across the public sector including to members and officers) to develop a suite of e-learning addressing public sector finance. We will be producing an introductory module for councillors which we will be repurposing for members – this is likely to be in October. Drop me a line (deborah@learningpool.com) if you would like more details.

One of our new modules in the Modern Councillor catalogue is on the topic of the Localism Bill , which undertook to change the law to shift power away from central government and towards local people. The bill is still going through Parliament, but it will be an important piece of legislation, especially for local authorities and the [...]

If there is one thing we are always being asked about at Modern Councillor , it’s how councillors could make use of social media. This isn’t just a flash in the pan, buzzword friendly request, but a recognition of the change in the way that many people today prefer to communicate. As the user figures of services such [...]
