About our training offer

We want to support local authorities to become better equipped with the skills, knowledge and tools they need to design and deliver modern digital public services.

In 2023, we provided Digital and Agile training to over 200 local authority staff, helping them to grow confidence and knowledge in digital delivery.

We also provided training to senior local government staff through the Executive Education Programme in Digital Transformation, in collaboration with AWS and Socitm. This two-day training programme was delivered to 150 directors and senior managers from councils nationwide. Watch recordings of the keynote presentations and panel sessions.

We’re now busy reviewing the feedback from these courses to determine the future of our training offer.

How we're measuring the impact of our training offer

To understand the impact of our training and how we can improve and iterate it over time, we have commissioned an independent evaluation of our digital and cyber training programmes.

To do this, we’ll be asking council employees, as well as elected members, who participate in our training programmes to complete a quick survey to understand their satisfaction, feedback and any new skills they have learned.

We’ll then be following up over time to understand how they have put these new skills into practice in their councils.
