How Local Government Works

**This online suite of eLearning is available continuously throughout the year, done at your own pace** The Taituarā LG How Local Government Works (LGHowLocalGovernmentWorks®) programme is a fantastic online suite of e-learning courses aimed at introducing both new and existing government employees to the legislative environment of local government.

Description

Both local and central government work closely together across the sector in many areas, including civil defence and emergency which has been key during the current Covid-19 epidemic. Other areas of cross over include well-being, housing, transport, infrastructure, climate change, water and both regulatory policy and legislation. It is, therefore, important that both sectors understand the differences and functionalities of each other.

Since launching How Local Government Works over 75% of councils and several government agencies are now implementing it as part of their induction programme.
