Improving the training skills of trainers at local level is an efficient way to ensure sustainable capacity building for elected officials and civil servants.
Following the first session of the Training of Trainers on the Leadership Academy Programme (LAP) held in September, a second session was held on 2 and 3 November at the National Academy for Public Administration in Belgrade.
The LAP was developed by the Centre of Expertise for Good Governance and had already been successfully implemented in many European countries. The interactive and innovative training programme can significantly enhance institutional leadership and contribute to improving governance at local level.
The thirteen participants who attended the final session of the Training of Trainers' have improved their knowledge of the 12 Principles of good democratic governance and the methods of transferring the relevant know-how to local leaders.
The Programme “Human Resource Management in Local Self-Government – Phase 2” is jointly funded by the European Union and the Council of Europe and implemented by the Centre of Expertise for Good Governance in cooperation with the Ministry of Public Administration and Local Self-Government and the Standing Conference of Towns and Municipalities.
