Code of Conduct

We provide a range of nationally recognised qualifications (local government specific) and council-specific non-accredited short courses as well as other professional development training options.

Who should Attend?

This course has been developed for all local government staff members. Local government employees have a responsibility to act legally and ethically in carrying out their local government responsibilities. They must carry out their local government duties in a way that complies with the principles outlined in the current Local Government Act and is consistent with their local government’s Code of Conduct. This course can be customised for in-house delivery.
