Local government is designed to be open, transparent, and accessible to the public.
From how decisions are made to how policies take shape, there are many ways to stay informed and engaged.
Local Government 101 brings that information together in one place.
It’s a free, self-paced course that gives a clear, practical look at how local government works and how decisions that affect your community come together.
The course is broken into short modules, each only a few minutes long. It includes interactive videos and a brief knowledge check at the end, so you can move through it at your own pace in about 30 minutes.
Local voices shape local choices, and the government closest to the people is the most accountable to them.
This course is designed to help you better understand that process so you can stay informed and take part in the issues that matter most close to home.
By the end, you’ll have a clearer picture of how your community operates and how you can be part of it. Get started now!
