Training for SDAB members and clerks is now available to support mandatory training requirement under the Municipal Government Act (MGA)
Recent changes of the MGA include a requirement for SDAB members and clerks to undergo mandatory training based on a standard program to be approved by the Minister of Municipal Affairs. SDAB training will ensure that hearing practices are consistent across the province, and board members have a comprehensive understanding of their role and the appeal process.
The SDAB training curriculum and updated materials will be made available shortly at https://www.alberta.ca/mga-change-management.aspx
