Councillor Development

Listed below are courses in a number of different formats for councillors of parish and town councils across Dorset. We provide online, e-learning and in person training as well as events to network at. Take a look from the schedule below and make sure you check with your clerk to make sure you haven't spent the entire training budget!

If your council wish to bulk purchase e-learning modules do get in touch. If you would like to discuss the delivery of one of the courses for the whole council, please call on 01305 224460 and we can discuss what your are looking to do.

Prices listed apply for DAPTC member councils only.
Non DAPTC member councils are welcome to book a place for double the price shown against the training.
