Watch for additional Munis 101 sessions coming soon
As summer villages hold their elections in the summer, the Elected Officials Education Program (EOEP) is hosting virtual offerings of Munis 101 exclusively for summer villages in September. Registration will open in the coming month at a rate of $275 per person.
The course covers the essential information councillors need to know to be effective municipal leaders and is a necessary step towards receiving a Municipal Elected Leaders Certificate (MELC).
Munis 101 is developed and delivered with the support of Municipal Affairs to help municipalities fulfill the Municipal Government Act requirement to provide orientation following the election. While the course is oriented for elected officials, CAOs are welcome to take the course so they are aware what is being covered and can provide supplemental orientation on any municipal specific information.
Summer village councillors and CAOs have two options to participate:
- The first offering will take place from 2:30 to 4:30 pm on September 14, September 21, September 28, and October 5.
- The second offering will take place from 7:00 to 9:00 pm on September 22, September 29, October 6, and October 13.
EOEP appreciates ongoing collaboration with the Association of Summer Villages of Alberta (ASVA) to make learning opportunities available for summer village councillors. Additional Munis 101 sessions are being planned for RMA and AUMA members and are expected to be announced soon.
