Local government in Australia is undergoing rapid change that has significant implications for the role of councillors. Increasingly, the changing responsibilities and increased breadth of activity being undertaken by local government councils requires councillors to have a high level and broad range of skills and knowledge. This national review of councillor training was carried out at the request of key local government stakeholders in order to inform future training developments, identify possible gaps, and share information about good practices that may have national application. The majority of the information in the following report has been sourced from semi-structured interviews with various stakeholders within the local government sector.
