WALC provides training under the 'National Improvement Strategy for Parish and Town Councils'

The National Training Strategy (NTS) represents a national commitment to training in the local council sector shared by national, regional and local stakeholder organisations. The purpose of the Strategy is to offer training to councils in order for them to make the most of their role and carry out their duties more easily.

These sessions are being run by The Parkinson Partnership LLP.  There will be Members in attendance from other Associations, WALC personnel may not be present.

If you need to book more places on a date than are showing available, please contact us, or join the waiting list and we will endeavour to fit you in (does not apply if the course says 'full')

The 'Clerk's Toolkit' sessions are intended, to give a complete grounding in the work of a parish clerk.  Each are stand-alone but also build on each other and clerks can attend as many or as few as required. Open to Clerks, Assistant Clerks and Finance Officers. 

If you are a new Clerk, why not start with our introduction session "The Clerk's Role"
